Red face Shame to see old kit being phased out...

Hi there,

just wanted to see if I am the only one who is bothered about oldtimers being phased out slowly.

I still love to fly the old BO 105 every time - or the 206 for that matter.

Does it not seem quite a shame that they are likely to die soon (in Europe that is)?

Or am I just not adapting to the new era properly?

Our company had all of Bell's Finest and now we have to put up with all the EC crap. Not a single Bell in the Hangar anymore. I probably would sound different if they would put their craft together right and customer service from this company would be worth being called it's name.

So am I alone with my romantic feelings about all the classics like 206s, Boelkows and Lamas or can I just not accept that the days of this kit are over?

(I am not even that old to start with...)

Keep your rotors in the green!
