    I'll be in WY fairly soon. Looking forward to seeing what it's like.
    If you like being left alone, it’s a nice place

    I flew in one once, but this boom strike stuff just sounds crazy..

    Actually, they do, assuming you know what to do with the collective.

    It is a close call as to who is in more danger doing predator hunting from the air — the coyote or the flight crew. Flying slow, with lots of maneuvering through your own wake vortices low to the ground, is demanding.
    Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.

    Pretty sure @Mas was in a piston helicopter crash while hunting hogs.

    I'll be honest, based on the title, I'm a little disappointed that it doesn't involve any hungry coyote hurling himself through the air with a catapult in an attempt to catch a road runner.

    They can: It’s called autorotating in case you want to learn more.
