I have a survey that is a bit out of date as I tendered an R44 maintenance contract a couple of years ago. There are some widely differing quoted rates (and actual rates) around the UK. Some companies quote 10 times the cost of doing a job that another equally well qualified (and licensed) engineer does.

PS on the Jeep thing, I'm comparing the plated service rates 50/100 on a R44 -v- a Jeep dealers plated service rates for standard services. I know where I get most value ...
