Frankfurt has some small mountains nearby, the Taunus, which are not quite skiing quality but do have a number of narrow and winding roads. A “Helicopter weather” day is one of the first nice Saturday or Sunday after winter. The reason for the name is because a lot of motorcyclists jump on their motorcycle and rush to the hills and inevitably some of them have accidents. Due to the nature of the accident and their location the quickest way get them to medical attention is with the emergency helicopter.
Some people feel they must be in charge if they are know what they are doing or not.
