I’ve worked with ranchers — notably the folks at the OX Ranch on Date Creek — to FIND their cattle, but my insurance does not allow me to round them up. There’s an outfit out of Texas that does that in Congress with R22s. I believe they work for the Granthams once in a while. Moving cattle is low-level, dangerous, dusty work that really beats up a helicopter. I’d like to try it sometime, but until I find insurance that allows, it, I have to say no.

See you at Robson’s later this month?

for the past three hrs. I have picked all through your site and am impressed and very pleased to have found it. Thank you!

I have flown twice with you- once at Robasons(sp?)Mining World, and the second at Old Congress Days.

You may not remember me as you saw alot of people on both times and I don’t expect you to. But you may remember the Teepee beside my house there in Congress.

As I told you on both rides I am a flegling helicopter pilot trainee with just over 27 hrs.

I have a questin as to the section “Helicopter Cowboy” which is how I found your website,

Why would you not wish to a round up of cows for the rancher? I figure that would be a blast!

I’ve done a couple of roundups on the ground and would be thrilled to do one from the air.

Thanks for all the great stuff found herein!

Sincerly,

Ira Birdwell
