A pretty good read about this guy, who did this thing, at this place.

Ok, he replaced Waylon Jennings in this chick's sex life, two months before smoking angel dust with genuine Hell's Angels, at a Waylon Jennings concert. At The Bottom Line in NYC. In 1974.

If you can resist clicking, and reading that, kudos.

Gawrsh! I had a Planets record back in the day and it was fabulous. Hooks galore. They should have been bigger.

Wow, and I'm not even a fan of NYC. But those pictures are gorgeous.

I'm not a huge fan of the tilt shift ones. I mean, the effect is neat, but kind of gimmicky. I expect that 10 years from now, they will seem incredibly dated.

From that article...
Quote:
Had we gone just a few thousand more feet up (around 11,000-12,000 feet) we would have needed oxygen masks!
One veteran pilot that we often fly with refused to go up to the altitude we were at ... He said that "helicopters are not meant to live in that realm" - which I kind of agree with following this flight.
Guess that pilot didn't have any Chinook experience.
