rotor-head

A derogatory term for a helicopter pilot.

Usually referring to the sort of helicopter pilot that ties up the radio because HE can hover and thus has all the time in the world, or who flies way too low over populated areas because he CAN.

Note: not all helicopter pilots are like this. But the ones that are, get called rotor-heads.
Will that rotor-head please quit hogging the radio so I can make my position report before I bust class D airspace?
