I tried the helicopter thing & discovered I could crash with the best, that was not so bad but I spent more money on repairs in the first month than the heli cost in the first place. So my better half bought me a computer program to learn to fly. My crashing continued at a furious pace but at least there were no repairs except to my ego. You know how sometimes you reach a point when you discover you are never going to be good at something, well I reached that point & moved on to boats. Now I am quite happy I did. It has opened a whole new chapter in my life & I am having fun again . Mick B.
