Ferrari Mailing List: Re: NFC: Grand Canyon tips anyone?

[Stephen Sherman (sherman]

Take the helicopter ride. It starts out normal but   then just after you go 
over the edge your cought in a downdraft and the pilot
is adding power & collective to counter it. you loose a couple hundred feet.
We did in the choppers like were used in Whirlybirds (a old tv show). After 
that I was hanging out the chopper taking pictures like crazy.
