KW,
Why wouldn't they be able to see us?

I'm surprised they brought it in so close, maybe they didn't realize they were THAT close. Johnny (guy nearest the chopper) said his hand was HOT.

lets just say they scare me. and I don't like riding in the back of hawks anymore either. or in front of them for that matter.

of corse I did the same damn thing last week at Yakistan, weaved a slalom between about 6 contractor vehicles as my lead bird did gun runs on 'em. they all seemed to like it.

KW,
Ya need to post some video from inside for us :)

I have a request,
anyway you might have connections to get in contact with the pilot that buzzed us?
I would like to get him a copy of the video, but for obvious reasons, on the downlow.

I can give you time and AO info if you have anyway of doing it.

um, yeah, don't hold your breath on my getting a contact for ya. if you want to PM me the info on where and when, I can try but doubt I'll get anywhere with it.

all my vids dumped over the last two moves. kinda pisses me off. had a good one of gunnery/Hellfire/copperhead shoots, in and out of the cockpit.
