There are some circumstances where adrenaline will save your life.
There are others where panicking will surely kill you.
Being able to control panic is a major feature of training programmes; making a situation just a little bit familiar (helicopter* submerged escape drill, etc.) can be the difference
between life and death.
For those moments when the training isn't enough, make sure you're wearing the new BorgCo armband. Just slap the actvator pad and the system starts a two-part process; a grid of tiny needles perforate a sachet of fast-acting tranquilizer, then the wearer's skin, giving an immediate level of protection- and a second slow-release medication is dispensed in a manner similar to a nicotine patch.

In the same way we view cats, we also loathe and detest rotary wing in all its forms. Any airborne vehicle which can trace its ancestry back to an domestic whisk in one generation is not worth considering except perhaps as a source of spares* for a real aeroplane. |

*The radios, the seats, the instruments ... that's about it. |

I don't think old Jonesey panics. I mean, he had 20+ years of
empire campaigning behind him at the start of WW1. He
never shies away from dangerous situations, maybe he's just
excited for a bit of action? |

That training film "How Not To Be Seen" has a lot to answer for. We know [pertinax] has watched it because he has turned out to be uncommonly skilled at avoiding AA rounds fired on a very low trajectory. |

But we'll get him in the end. Or maybe in the head, or torso - if he's lucky. |
