Chill dudes I'm still here although I am very touched for your concern and the posting on HH now makes sense.
Its pretty fuckin' grim isn't it.
Choppers are definitelty not the safest form of transport ( as anyone who regularly flies in one will tell you. Most folk who work in the North Sea can relate a story of a near miss with a chopper). It is the only aspect of my job that worries me and I know a lot of my colleagues feel the same way.
Thanks again for your concern
Luv on ya all
