MD 500 a great aircraft
Pros
1. Will handle very rough weather very well
2. Very quick, a good one will cruise at 130 kts
3. As turbines go its running costs are lowish ( due to its speed )
4. Fun to fly known as The Ferrari " of the helicopter world
5. Hold their money, I have owned 7 in my time each one has sold for more than I paid for it.
Cons
1. Very small, yes you can get 5 in but think of 5 in a traditional mini
2. No baggage area other than under rear seats, unless you put a pod underneath
3. manufacturer takes the piss on parts prices but they all do
4. Second hand ones expensive
5. New ones ridiculously expensive
