If you have a generator you can plug in a fridge and your battery charger for the heli. Beer and flying, what else do you need in the meantime? ;D Well perhaps some food, but thats what the grill is good for!!

That's what knocked down the Dallas Cowboys' training facilaty. Usually it is only in a small area, unlike a tornado. I don't think I have heard of over 75 mph though. I know from experience, that is enough to cause some heavy damage. Hope you faired okay and not too much damage. Keep the helis covered up ;D |

where i live 50 mile an hour winds whip throw at times, and tear the crap outa stuff, luckily houses only get roofing tore off unless a tree is blown over onto a house. worst one was 2 years ago, not sure how many of you know what a circle is, but its for irigation, imagine a 14 foot tall sprinkler system on wheels that goes around in a circle, hence the name. well we had probably half of them in our area all tipped over by wind. talk about a mess.
