Heli flying is really expensive, though, and is mostly just for commercial use, not recreational, unless you have lots and lots of money.

Float flying, especially if you build your own plane like I did, is much more affordable, and more fun, too, IMO.

But some heli guys have fun, too, if you work for BC Helicopters. Here is a vid made late this fall here, in the mtns just north of Vancouver. One of the helis used in the filming was on our Taseko trip.

That is crazy walter. Deff jealous. My uncle is a helicopter instructor in alberta, which is why iv been thinking about getting mine. But he told me the market for pilots isnt that great right now. Maybe ill look into it next year
