I am not a helicopter pilot, but I am intrigued.
How do the Rotorway Exec and the Safari (
http://www.acehelicopter.com/) compare to the R22? The R22 gets a slating for being a dangerous machine with low rotor inertia and the teetering head thingy which I don't understand. Are these better? The reviews I have read, certainly on the Rotorway, say yes.
If you didn't have to build them, which would experienced Rotorheads choose as a basic 2-seat piston helicopter out of these three examples? In this case, I am ignoring the Bell 47 and the Hiller, but could maybe add in the Schweitzer as being comparable?
