Said yes because I believe you're asking if I've flown in a helicopter.

I've been in one that never left the ground.

.,

Ex military, countless times.

My husband used to work on them and now he inspects then.

Yeah. A few years ago I got medevac'd to Boston.

I've never ridden one but I've ridden in the Goodyear Blimp whatever that has to do with this question. lol

Yes, I got to fly in one over Charlotte. Very nice!

Would not care to.

I've been in one but never one that lifted off the ground.

Spent too much time in one.

In Orlando they'll take you over the Disney parks for $20.

I was obsessed with helicopters as a kid and I got to ride in one at age 10. A Vietnam vet was our pilot and he did a bit of showing off with a fast landing while turning. Nope no thx. Never again.

No but would like to someday.

Me--no. My husband--only aerovac with a broken neck. He was bummed that it was his first ride and he was staring at the ceiling

As Engineering & operations Supt. I was required by DOT, to fly the energy pipelines in my area, several times a year, usually in a single engine Cessna, but I think flew them one time in a Bell helicopter.

Yes, to see the lava in a volcano on Big Island.

Yeah. The parish I was at had fundraiser for our youth sports, you paid for golf balls, which were numbered and dropped from a helicopter onto a golf green, closest to hole one money. One year I got to do the drop. I went up in a helicopter, leaned out the door, directed the pilot left or right and then dumped two large bucket containing several hundred golf balls out of the helicopter. It was a lot of fun.

I once was in a helicopter ride. In Argentina. Never again

Doing search and rescue in the mountains I got to ride in a Chinook and a Bell Jet Ranger.

Twice. One ride in a CH-47 and another in a UH-60M, both for air assault missions. As a fixed-wing aviator and a skydiver on the civilian side, I hate helicopters. Damned things belong on the ground.

On the ground yeah

Not that I can remember however I have been to Vegas a few times

Our base flies the UH-1. I've been in one, but it was parked in the hanger the whole time. 😉

Many times. Ditched in ocean once. Marine Corps

I have, and I liked it. A lot. If helicopters and rotary wing training weren't so expensive, I'd have a Schweitzer 300C parked in my back yard as my daily driver.

Last summer. I've never been in a plane however

Yep. Had an emergency and had to almost ditch in the open ocean. At night. In the middle of the Indian Ocean. Scary.

Several, yes.

Took a helicopter tour of the Grand Canyon when I was a kid.

A few times - Tahiti, Fiji, New Zealand, and Alaska.

As a child at an air show; in but not up.

Chinook in training ...

In, but not up in.

US Army Air Assault! #ArmyVet

Just for takeoff, not landing. We fast roped out.

Navy rescue helo during a deployment. Perks of being an operational "nonner"

Twice in Hawaii.

I would like to. Maybe I should put a big white X in the septic field. Fishing for whirlybirds.

Some of us identify as helicopters

Yeah, I used to rappel out of them in the Army.

Once. Last year in NY

It was grounded.
