DEC had a helicopter service. The pilots had nealy all been in Vietnam.
I heard the following story at a sales meeting.:
The helicopters would usually rise gently to 2000' and set course fo the next plant.
Unless you asked how they had got on in SE Asia.
Then you got the "how to get to the drop zone whilst avoiding AAA, smallarms fire
and ground to air missiles demo".
Aparrantly one guy said to the person sat next to him it's a pity you had your eyes
closed when we flew under the high voltage wires.
You missed going under the bridge on the other side
Bummer, I did not know that or I would have asked that question, back in the days when I
used that service regularly.
