Re: I survived
Nothing as fancy as spy. I work for oil industry and this is a normal mode of transportation to the oil rigs.
It’s not Iranian coast, it’s the persian gulf I am talking about which is between uae and Iran. and again I work for oil patch. Ever heard of satellite communication systems, works everywhere. 
. BTW this is the reason that sometimes I don’t post for some days if I don’t get good connection.
I was but now I am back home in Oman.
It’s not that fancy choppers you see in the movies, this is that 13 passenger flying thing.
No clue about it.
LOL actually I do work for an american oilfield company but to play in Iran the company is registered in Sigapore. The only thought going through my mind was my sea survival course which I was rehearsing in mind that was in case if the chopper had flipped over.
Actually no, too many things were happening at the same time. No time to think about this.
I was traumatised but nothing serious. eh. nothing that old chivas cannot fix.
