Put the agreed offer in this morning subject to survey

It's in for a fresh annual next week and then.........Yeeeeeha

[Rob P]

It's a helicopter?

Looks very nice but I thought you wanted a N in front - mind you if it comes with a new star annual then it dosn't matter as much.
Congratulations and goodby to even more money per hour than before!

[Buzzc150]

Very nice.... can't wait to have a go.

When do the wings get fitted ?

[Rotorhead]

I did want a "N" but this was purchased in $'s - no VAT to pay and is er..very well kitted out.

In case the survey doesn't go to plan, I have another on the back burner in Denmark.

Touch wood - If nothing goes wrong with this one, 1st year flying will cost me (Ex Fuel, Insurance and Landing fees) around

Nice one, Rotor

I'm not jealous at all...nop, not one bit

So, WGAL. Watkins Groups of Biggleswade operating a 1980 206B3

i.e. not US, not a LR and very local. What was the problem is sourcing one?

Will WGAL stand for "What a GAL!" ?

5 seats, one engine?

[Rotorhead]

No such luck as 2 engines - 1 turbine is bad enough to maintain.
5 seats
Cruise 110/115kts
Lifts stacks more than the last one, with a proper boot to put the illegal immigrants in.
More viable commercially
Range 3 hours

You wait my old darlings - you thought we had a nice ride in the last one...

[BlueRobin]

JRs have an auto-rotate party trick. Enough inertia IIRC to auto-rotate, land, lift off and then land again.

Potential change in ownership noted by "next door"

[Rotorboater]

Sounds like a good deal and it looks a nice machine although a bit of a boring paint job for one of yours

I hope you can get it near the house after all you will be buying a heck of a lot of central heating oil this year

Good luck and I can't wait to see it.

Being stiched up by the Yanks I'm affriad

I opened a Hotmail account posing as a US buyer on the very same machines I'd already enquired about....

Deal one to the Brit = $500k
Deal one to the same Brit posing as a Yank = $460k !

Not cricket

[Propwash]

I thought you were going to get one with floats?

Are you selling the Raven II? If so, what's depreciation like? Or is that a private question?

Don't forget your LoA with NATS becomes null and void upon changing the type and/or registration of the helicopter.

Of course, the 'fast track' method of changing your details is available post a short test flight for a TC ATCO

Enjoy it - look forward to speaking to you.
