I left the US Coast Guard fifteen years ago with nearly 3000
hours of helicopter flight time. In that period I had occasion to fly in some
of the most beautifully perfect and horrifically miserable weather conditions
imaginable. Not once in that period did I puke.
This was an oft-voiced statement in the months leading up to
my first real race with “Patent-It! Racing”…..and at this point I’m betting you
can see where this story is going but we’ll get to the self-deprecation in a
bit.
