I call bullshit on this analogy. If it required similar skills to a human standing on a basketball, then a Helicopter is an monumental engineering failure.

- lisper 8y agoIf you don't believe me, go to your nearest general aviation airport, hire a training helicopter and an instructor, and try it yourself.
- fermienrico 8y agoOther Pilots have already commented - it is nowhere as difficult as balancing on a Basketball.
- akira2501 8y ago> then a Helicopter is an monumental engineering failure. That's baffling. Engineering is the art of compromise. The helicopter _does_ have many compromises in it's design, but it's benefits are unmatched by other aerial vehicles. In other words, the benefits outweigh the negatives.
