I'd lay on it like the 5 year old.   :idiot2:

But I'd be on my belly looking down.  And I'd like to lay there for a while and view everything below.  That should  be more than a 2 minute glance and photo opp. 

I'm a claculated risk taker and I do trust that they wouldn't be letting people out there if it were unsafe.

That would be fantastic... next time I'm in Chicago....  Wonder what they charge.
My Doc's have 20 peices of brass on them.

I enjoyed taking risks when I was younger. I think I took the most when I was in the US_Army.

I was constantly being moved around.

Back in those days they had the OH6 Cay_use "Little bird". They still use that same basic helo airframe but it has been renamed and significantly modified.

Pilot took me for the ride of my life :mrgreen: I'll never forget it, Fun! He could sure fly that bird.

I'd stay seated in the cabin though, Forward Observer.

Similar to these Helo's. I'd wear a harness though, all it take is one Ooops.



BTW, I still have a healthy respect for heights...
