Hey guys,
I have some left hand drive a-star time in C-FCCA. It was referred to as a BA7 as it was certified for 7 seats with an optional double seat to the right of the pilot.
It has some deficiencies though such as the battery in the tail boom for aft ballast to compensate for the extra weight at the front. If you're not using it with the double seat then she hangs a wee bit tail low in the hover compared to a right hand drive a-star.
The big bubble window is for vertical reference work. It works great for some body types but nearly impossible for drivers who are too short or too tall.
Hines Creek Area of Alberta in 2004.
