Do you fly an r-44? A friend of mine went down in one and nearly lost his life. After speaking with some of the rescue crew they all mentioned that when one goes down its almost always an r-44 as its the hundai of helicopters, we did some research and found it to be a very popular craft. Ive always wanted to do a helicopter tour when traveling but am always scared away when I see that it is a robinson. Would you or do you feel comfortable in them?

Do you fly? Here is why I ask. I am a passanger car mechanic and was just thinking about this the other day. Our typical repair process is the car comes in, customer explains their needs/concerns. Diagnose then contact customer and give a quote for reapirs. Order parts. Complete repair, then road test the vehicle. What is your typical repair process like? Do you have the authority to order a new part if its needed? What kinds of parts do you typically have in stock for a fighter jet? What does basic maintenance entail? Are the weapons removed before the plane is brought in for service?

You said you liked both angel stadium and petco parks grass....my 2 preferred parks because I live near angel stadium and I go to SD for a few games a year. Its funny you mentioned your arizona rock lawn, there was an interview in the local paper with the angels grounds keeper and he has artificial turf with a putting green because he mows grass all day!

What is the surface under the grass like? typical dirt or something special? With events like monster trucks and supercross or even concerts, what is the process like to put down new grass?

what do you do to prevent weeds or anything else from coming up through the sand from the native soil? from bare sand how long until you are at a playable field?

What about the fact that places like detroit have significantly higher populations of blacks compared to a place like Irvine, CA? Has anyone ever adjusted somehow for the population of blacks vs whites to apply to the arrest rates?
