MOST HEART-THROBBING ROTORCRAFT: the Huey. No question, with those big blade turning at over .7 MACH... MOST BEAUTIFUL ROTORCRAFT: while some might prefer the Sikorsky S-76, I personally am bats over the Bell 222, no doubt from watching Airwolf constantly. There's something about the way it looks with retractable wheels... On the other hand, I believe the Museum of Modern Art has a Bell 47 in its permanent collection. The 47 looks like exactly what you expect a helicopter to look like; probably why it's there. It's also quite lovely, especially if you like seeing all the tubing in the back. The only half-nice looking gyroplane I've ever seen is the enclosed Vancraft; only about 5 of those flying. The Bensen looks like an office chair with an electric mixer attached. -- Dave Fiedler {harpo,astrovax,whuxcc,clyde}!infopro!dave People Phone: (201) 989-0570 USMail: InfoPro Systems, 3108 Route 10, Denville, NJ 07834 Caldwell Tower, this is 16 Lima inbound for Runway 4 with information Idiot...
