Its a real shame about the Grand as I believe we will be given about 2 hours of fuel (due to energy absorbing rear seats), I guess that will stop a lot of us moving up the Agusta range to something that will suit the pax more.

I have my fingers crossed that we can option the original seat design and thus back to our original 660fg of fuel.

Have also heard that with the fitting of the Koala rotor head (or similar) has given it the same speeds if not better but with the use or a much lower torque setting. (so maybe it just works better???).

From what I am told it was designed with the EMS market solely in mind.

To me, running a 76 would not only require a pilot, but also a ginger beer....... any comments?
