MY NEW HELICOPTER!

Look Ma, I got a helicopter. Should eliminate me getting caught in traffic, right?

OK, it’s bullshit, I didn’t buy a helicopter. The pilot landed here because the winds we’ve been having lately cut back on his flying time and he stopped here to get some gas.  After he bought 10 gallons, he tried to take off. NO JOY! Dead battery. Tried jumping the 24 volt battery off of my Jeep, but once again, NO JOY, Called the Las Vegas Airport to see if they had a service vehicle, NO JOY. Called the Santa Fe Airport and again, NO JOY. Called a mobile RV service company to see if the had the capability to jump the bird, they did, but again, NO JOY! The starter now seems to be toast.

Now this bird has a total of 10 flying hours on the clock and it’s D.O.A. on my property. I guess when I do buy a helicopter, I won’t be buying this brand. Anyway, they haven’t come back as of this writing, so if it turns out to be abandoned, I guess I can use it as a very expensive planter.
