Much as I would love the adventure of flying my R44 back from Las Vegas to the UK .....
Why not do it?
Maybe with an experienced pilot for company and to share the workload? I'm sure there'd be no shortage of volunteers.

A friend and I ferried a single-engine fixed-wing from the UK to America some years ago and it was an experience of a lifetime. Our route across the Atlantic was Iceland - Greenland - Goose Bay, then Quebec and across America to Dallas.

Or, if you're not comfortable about crossing the pond single-engined, fly as far as the East Coast and crate it from there ? It would be a great opportunity to see a lot of North America from the air.


It seems such a shame to crate it all the way and miss out on a wonderful experience.
