    One incident should not condemn the industry.
    I've seen the same behavior of hikers in "wilderness" areas.
    Key words are "responsible float plane operators". My incident was not with Helms, but with another operator with a clearly labeled plane. Bad behavior by one segment of outdoor users does not excuse another.

      So, we throw the baby out with the bath water????
      That's like labeling all hikers jerks because they left trash behind.

        My beef was with that one particular operator only, and the ranger to whom I reported has verified similar past instances.

            Sure, I'll report and throw out anyone I can identify who doesn't play by accepted ethics and rules, hikers included.
