Your De-Vile is officially on the road now then. At first glance I thought it was fingers  Was flying in leathers hot? Or was it cooler high up. How did you find flying the choper, was it hard? |

;D I remembered the vile bit Pleased you have the initial issues sorted. I think you have created a handy bike. I have had a flight in a small plane and was supprised at the feeling of height/vertigo. Not an issue but it did supprise me. Did you feel that? |

I've been in a hot air balloon and in a chopper, but didn't have any vertigo. Standing on the egde of a building however....  Or painting the guttering on my house......  Yuck GvS |

Or was it cooler high up. 2C temp loss for every 1000 feet is a good rule of thumb for an Environmental Lapse Rate but I doubt you would notice that inside a Helicopter with doors closed |
