helicopter ride at the fair by josephfromabove at 9/21/2012 7:49:47 PM I went on a helicopter ride at the fair, it was definetly different, I had been on a Huey before but this was small and cramped for my size, and I have to say it was smoother than the rollercoaster ride, and less noise, except for prop wash.

I have walked steel 34 stories up, and I liked that view just as much. Didn't stay up that long, only 6 minutes.
