I hope so! It was the first helicopter I’d ever flown in, though purely as a passenger; it took place at the end of one of the interminable Command Post Exercises we indulged in. The Army Air Corps decided to give flying jollies around the exercise area so I dutifully queued up and awaited my turn. The thing is, there were no rear doors and no seats, so I just buckled myself in and held on for dear life, my condition not helped by the fact that the pilot thought he should show us what the aircraft could do.
It was nearly time to change my combat trousers at the end of that.
