Krypton,

Vested interests there for sure..... I've spent some time in a Gazelle ....loverly to fly no doubt about it ...BUT NOT for aerial work in Australia.

Fuel consumption alone close to 40Gal (200l)/hr is in excess of the Jet Ranger.

Parts and Maintenance here will make your eyes water!!!!

Might be a great machine for rich men in the UK but NOT for Oz consumption.
