OK 407,
Lets say he is 2820+-, you of all people know that under IDEAL condtions in ye ol mountians the 206 still isnt very forgiving up there, and toss in roaring winds down the glacier , or at the bottom of the Cirque, snow, flat light, pax who tend to fib about weight..... she is gonna be mushy, at 10K...

What do you guys typically load too when you take the 2slowoh6 out up to alt.... load her up and see if you can run her down the runway in Golden!

Oh course the media could have it all wrong and they could be in a lama, a l model or a 407! A helicopter is a helicopter , Right!
