Helicopters will eat that "surplus" up fast. Not only are they expensive to acquire, but they are expensive to run.

I'll help you get started. Here you go.

Oh don't worry, you'll land. Whether you get to try again or not is the issue.

Congratulations @Dadhawk. First day of retirement. Welcome to the club. Enjoy retirement. I hope you get in lots of flying time, and whatever else you enjoy.

There was never a shortage of Trade-A-Planes and JC Whitneys in my childhood home.
