$3000/hour sounds a bit steep....shouldn't be more than $2000
Tell me you're kidding, please
Look for mid $3k's plus GST, and you might get toward a proper Adhoc return on a 205. Re the earlier comment on hourly rates on contract, that's as well as a daily standing charge.
I take it that pilots and engineers do expect to get paid? The longer rates stay low, the more difficult it remains to make a decent margin to pay everyone well.
Helicorp's 205 is on contract for some time and unlikely to be available for training, by the way.
