What is the market for this ship - training, general use or a mix? Frank designed the r22 as a commuter but it quickly established itself as THE trainer. The R44 is the worlds biggest selling rotorcraft and is a general use commuter/utility ship.
The cabri will be a great trainer if it can be comparable to the r22 in DOC. If it lacks lifed components, why is apparently so expensive to fly? Being faster and having luggage space does not make it any better for training. Having two seats makes it useless for pretty much everything the r44, the world's biggest selling helicopter, does.
So I think this is a beautiful, technically excellent ship but it won't succeed unless it can be operated about as economically as the r22.
