Tough crowd!

The amount of advice….

The company linked to up near the start of the thread, HBC, has been in operation since 2016, has a Canadian (though Japanese speaking) owner, flying a straight B model 350 from the 1980’s!! Now suddenly, this OP’s wish to do the same in a new 407 is absolutely impossible?!?

500 hrs is not a whole lot of flying, BUT if you plan on flying your own machine getting training (presumably by some of you perhaps?!?) for several hundred hours in the operating environment, I hazard a guess that the 500hr pilot will be more suitable than a 3000hr CFI/Grand Canyon tourjockey or a utility pilot that has 5000hrs firefighting or bird towing.
Hours is only hours. Experience is something else.
