Had a friend who has passed away now who flew Huey's in Nam. He bet an F4 pilot a case of beer that he could fly his Huey to 10,000 ft. first. The F4 pilot took the bet and lost. My friend said (I'll clean this up a bit.) that the F4 pilot forgot that he had to fly horizontal before he could fly vertical. I could only imagine the sensation in that chopper just before and as it lifted off. Bet the crew felt they were going to be forced through the floor from the G force. Yep, chopper jockeys definitely have a loose wing.
