R44 Depreciation

It arrived on November 3rd 05........

I would have flown it more had I not set myself some fairly conservative weather limitations in line with the still-wet ink on my licence.

I cant imagine anybody buying a new heli, only to fly it for 50 hours a year.

For those who have yet to have a go in one - be prepared to want one very badly. If you do buy one, try and keep your backside out of it on a good day.

If anybody might want a 600 hour 'never used for training' machine in 08, I'll keep a note. I would probably look to trade it then for a new one.
