Re: Lifestyle change
As for landing on an area "about a foot wider than the skids" - that's no more an issue than parking your car in a space that's about a foot wider than its wheelbase.
I do believe you on the manoeuvrability of choppers.. But if I was to 'touch the sides' while parking my car, or somehow back into a building or mast or powerpole or something, most I'd get is some scratched paint work or perhaps a dent. I don't think I'd like the idea of doing that with some fast moving rotors, even though they're likely to be moving away from me very fast should that happen.
I would dearly love to fly a chopper. Especially if I not only have a landing I can walk away from, but one the craft can immediately fly away from as well :)
