So, if you remember my "Mens Toy Show" pics thread
http://www.highperformancestangs.com...ead.php?t=5291 at the end of my post I mentioned how I "salvaged" the weekend. Well heres the vid of why and how.

I got to take my first helicopter ride. As part of the show a company was giving 30$ rides of about a 6-7 min duration. This was cool as fugg, if a little bit disconcerting given the seemingly frail nature of the craft in use.

So we flew around the local area surrounding the Cardinals stadium where the show was. And first as far as I know on these various boards, I have aerial vid of my own car. And once I figure out how to capture a single frame from the vid, Ill have a still pic.

During the filming, just after the 9:30 mark, I mustve tripped the shutter because the vid stopped. I guess I missed somewhere under 30 secs. Nothing big as we were over the dirt field at the time, still I hate that I missed any of it.

Language warning, I use the "S" word.
