This reminds me that Universal had to get their red Pinto stationwagon certified by the FAA before they could drop it from a helicopter to hit a mark. This was for the famous scene where Henry Gibson and his underling plummet through Chicago in "The Blues Brothers". Will you have to get it certified with the FAA as well? Sorry if you already answered that question - have been off sick for a few days and skimming through 287 e-mails. :P Good luck to those wind-blown Mid-Atlantic State residents!
