I see Helicentre in Leicester only have Cabris and no R22s.
Interesting to read about your experience with the Cabri and maintenance.

My first trial flight was on a Cabri and the flight had to be rescheduled two times on short notice due to maintenance (at least I was told so...)

Awesome looking heli from outside and inside but I went on the 269C after that...
