The Loach was suprisingly good at surviving crashes, and my fiance's dad was shot down 3 times in a Loach and survived all three crashes with nary an injury. The problem was not the crashworthiness, it was the fact that the small arms fire often killed pilots and co-pilots. He himself was shot twice while (well during two incidents, he was actually shot 4 times) flying Loaches. He also lost at least 10 pilots/co-pilots during his two tours in Vietnam and all my research indicates that the only remarkable part of his experience is that HE survived, not that he lost so many crew partners. Additionally, Loach pilots who survived being shot down were often lost behind enemy lines and in the close vicinity of enemy troops. Loaches often operated alone and at extreme low altitudes where their exact position was not known by friendly forces (unlike with jet pilots who are tracked by friendly radar). That makes for poor conditions for recovering downed pilots.

whoa this is a strange topic. goes from a scenario idea to a chopper discussion

Those of us who are contributing are enjoying the discussion. There is no requirement to stay on topic here. You are, of course, welcome to not read this thread and I think I speak for everyone when I say we won't be offended if you choose not to read it.

And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains: round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

I don't mind, every one can express there opinions here. He didn't say any thing bad. Off topic, but if we did do a star wars thiem at TT or something, then I could probobly be "the leading historian" on the matter

stars war dont you mean? dont expect to see that happening... though MOB wars will be fun...I know dell reads a lot of science fiction so i imagine he will incorporate that into a game sometime...
