Pilots hate that. Their craft is either a 'helicopter', or simply a 'ship'.
And please God, don't ever call it a 'hee-lo' around them.

(25,477 posts)Years ago I had a bird colonel as a patient and every time I try to discuss anything military he correct every other word that came out of my mouth. I actually sort of appreciated it because its an education, but in the beginning it was really obnoxious.
I got my end in though: Anytime he asked me a dental question I would correct his use of general terms with more precise general terms. He got the point, and we both had a lot of fun with each other. Its funny, the ex-military brass, Ex-FBI, Ex-Secret Service patients whom I treated universally have all been the friendliest other oriented people you can imagine. With her sincere or not they have remarkable social graces.
One gentleman I treated in the 1980s had been a base commander for what was then a secret base. He was one of those interesting people Ive met in a lifetime. And I cant discuss a word of what we discussed, and when he died I felt as though I lost a friend.
Its been a remarkable career.
