The good side of living in a military state
I got to ride gunner seat on a Huey that was in the 'nam war. Up to 1k feet in the air and a little higher. I have a video too, that's still uploading. At one point we where literally facing the ground he turned so sharp :D. I can't even begin to describe how much fun it was!

Gnarly! My uncle is the person who commands where water is to be dropped during wild fires, but I don't think we went quite that high. Sounds like fun though.

It was in Beaufort. It's supposed to be the 2nd largest military base in the country.
