The first couple of times I went I thought it was really interesting to see all of the different facets of the helicopter industry and how great it was to meet with some old friends. After that, I have to agree it is the same thing, just a different year.

Just remember you pilots and mechanics are the ones that have brought it into being.  Don't worry about the fluff, worry about the substance.  Be thankful for the part you played.

Contrary to the views of posters on this site, the helicopter world does not revolve around pilots. The highest paid people in the helicopter world are not pilots, they are the management, mechanics, quality personnel, machinists, overhaulers and every other facet of the business. These are the principal attendees at HAI.

Helicoper pilots make up approximately 5% of the entire workforce directly related to operating, maintaining, manufacturing, overhauling, designing, selling and supporting the industry. The vast majority of individuals working in the helicopter industry don't ever meet or know any pilots. They are very lucky.

"The vast majority of individuals working in the helicopter industry don't ever meet or know any pilots."

I would say this is probably the most ridiculous thing said on JH. At least in the last 15 minutes.
