That is what I love about the Army Helicopter comunity. Us Crewchiefs and Pilots have a real special bond. We are very close, pretty much like a family. I think it has to do with the fact that we all rely on each other so much. We fly into combat together. We rely on them to dodge the bullets and get us home safe, they rely on us defend them with our door guns and on top of that they rely on us to repair the aircraf so that they can fly it safely. They even ask us how they can help us when we are working on the helcopter trying to fix something. Hell out pilots even go to the local pub with us and drink beers on the weekends. They are great guys.
It is maintainer and pilot harmony!
