Byff's Blogz day#4 The hunt for a new helicopter continues. Found a smashed up little bird resting against a building, obviously, someone had an adventurous landing. Luckily, I managed to get my hands on a tractor, the perfect tool for bouncing the chopper into a space just barely big enough for a take off. The hunt for spare parts took a bit longer than I'd hoped but its more or less repaired, just needs 2 glass and a scrap metal to complete then we can attempt a take off. I'm going on holiday for a few weeks so I was prepared to risk flying it with a very high chance of death, after all, I only carry meds and a hatchet now. Despite the assistance of the Fogeyz, I just ran out of time and didn't get a chance to finish repairing it. Someone else will have to be brave, but for now - it's holiday time.

Byff's Blogz Day#3 Figured out that all this PvP is a bit beyond me. I got shot and I didn't have a clue from where or by what, so until I'm more confident in gun handling, I'll be sticking to a hatchet for zed defence and i'll primarily be playing a medic role. The Fogeyz are a good mix of survivors and PvP players but unfortunately, I wasn't in the teamspeak channel so technically classed as a bandit. I was a legitimate target. On a positive note, I ran all the way back to where my dead body was and I was only missing my M14 and G17, but all my other supplies was still intact. I was informed that the players that had killed me had a black Gaz and a white pick-up plus they'd stolen my Landy so there must have been a few of them. After recovering my gear, I ran off for a 7k run to get to an AH6X Little Bird helicopter through the woods. I made out the glint of a vehicle through the trees and it was a black gaz, empty but half full of fuel. A little further on and I found the white pick-up, with 6 wheels, engine parts, fuel tank parts, jerry cans, glass and loads of other stuff. With a full tank of fuel, it made the final 5k a lot easier and I feel that I've got my own back just a little bit. Disaster....got back to the helicopter and it was destroyed !!!! Looks like it's back to stalking the airfields for the re-spawns.

Byff's Blogz day#2 Simple day today, just repair a Ural truck, move it to a new location and get some gear stashed away in it. That was the plan, until I realised the Mi-17 needed fuel - boy does that thing take some filling up. Filled her up and had a look for a Huey that I'd crashed earlier, figured it'd be easier to spot from the air. How wrong could you be !!! Basically, earlier I had landed a Huey quite safely and jumped out. I was quite surprised to find the chopper overtake me as it slid down a hillside and into a forest. It was damaged, but not a write off, so I either wanted to repair it or blow it up to force it's re-spawn. I looked all over the place and I just can't find it, so if I can't find it and I know where I crashed it, there's no chance of anyone stumbling across it. Is that a challenge I wonder? All you budding treasure seekers out there are welcome to jump on the Fogeyz cherno server and have a look for it. I also did a bit taxi'ing for WaCko and Ice7 so it's a good job the Russian flies fast, coast to NW in 2 minutes beats walking any day. Unfortunately, Munny, Ryan and Tobbes suffered a little set back when I accidently nose dived the Mi-17 into the sea when trying to do a top speed test. 380kmh we hit but I left it a little bit too late to pull up and it was a swim back to recover our gear on the respawn. Quick edit to add: I got Hero skin today, nearly pooped my pants when he went "arghh" and the skin changed.

Loving the London server. :D
