Thanks Jonathon.

Back in another segment of my aviation life, we used to say "if it takes a helicopter to get there it is not worth visiting". Of course the complete opposite is what is true. In another segment of life, my offshore racing days, I was asked if a five day race I did one February was fun, I answered "no but it was worth doing". Each is drawn to their own ""fun.
