what is the total weight of the 4 of you? is it 600, 700 pounds? that makes a big difference
in a hot day at high altitude and at GW, it will be difficult to TO, just like in a 206 or even a R66 at GW
under that no sweat
any way its illegal to fly over GW and make the flight insecure
If you manage the parameters carefully it is a very enjoyable ship, good looking
and ultra reliable with the longest available time on component, unlike a 206 or 66
but the inspection at 24 or 144 month will cost you

How high, is high when it comes to annual maintenance? $20.0k?
