There is a Hiller 12 E4 for sale on Online Helicopter Trader (http://www.onlinehelicoptertrader.com) which is in the UK. Maybe the owner would hire it out whilst on the market.

Good luck.

I think the guys at HFI Engineering near Sandy UK have a Hiller, not sure if they work it though. Try 01767 651887.

Hields Aviation Hiller is a 12E4 so can carry pilot plus 3.

There's also a commercial pilot current on it at the moment.

It's in excellent condition and has already starred in several films and TV series.

PM me if you want any further info.
