I don't remember, it's been a while, but they MIGHT have been Dauphins-sleek ass Eurocopters with retractable gear.

A man after my own heart. Cheesy

I see so many errant apostrophes here & all over the Internet that I've started using them myself. Shocked

You see it so many times it becomes second nature.

It's debatable whether Dan was in fact wrong. If the apostrophe is used to indicate missing letters in a word - heli's meaning helicopters - I think this would be grammatically correct.

Agreed,

But, for the record, real helicopter pilots (like me!) call them "helos" (pronounced he-low) not "helis", "heli" just sounds... well... wimpy!

I'm not trying to start anything, that post is just a general FYI to everyone who says "helis" and "heli".
