Whirly - far too many posts!! Hope all is well with your activities re: 007.
I have never flown a piston helo! I'm so proud of that!
30yrs later and 7000hrs - my first solo is always my fondest memory.
Let's see now: The average price for a single turbine (per hour) is what: £150. A twin: £400. Average say £300. [Forgetting the big heavies].
That makes Just over 2 million pounds spent.
290 days continual flying.
200lts/hr fuel used = 1.5 million ltrs kerosene.
100kts average = 700,000Nm covered = 30 times round the world.
Not bad considering all that was for FREE
