Thanks to those who responded with welcomes and encouragement. By the way, I did not mean to imply that I am a helicopter pilot. I haven't flown a helo since Viet Nam, 33 years ago. I just thought of the that learning experience in that first few minutes of fighting for balance in the kayak. I'm actually a retired Sheriff's Captain working in a second career as an Oracle Database Administrator (pays better but is more boring.) Anyway, as I always say, anything worth doing is worth over doing, and any activity that doesn't end in the emergency room is a success.
