Better off to buy a R44?
- don't think so, you'd have been 150K stg worse off!
35k profit in jet ranger - GONE!
95k depreciation in R44 from 2002 to 2008 - GONE!
20k extra spent on fuel - GONE!

150k total - BLOWN! !

Plus the R44 would still have needed its annual and C of A just like the Jet Ranger, plus the 25 hour oil change hassle and maybe a couple of cylinders and a set of main rotor blades!

Never mind the embarassment of the popping and banging noises and all the shaking whenever you go to start it!
