Hello Rotorheads,
My first ever post on this site, cant believe I didnt know about it.
I'm a low hour PPL and I'm considering buying an R44 Raven I to do some hourbuilding on. I'd just like to know if any other rotorheads here could give me some information on what the costs involved would be.
Such as
>Cost of a R44 Raven I (used one of course, well maintained, £99k budget)
>Maintenance
>Insurance
>Oil/fuel.
>etc. any other costs!! (im sure there's loads I havent thought off)
I would be hoping to sell some hours on my machine to other local PPL pilots to offset these costs. I would be looking at trying to sell at least 200 hours per year on the machine. Can this be legally done privately or are there certain restrictions in place??
I would be gratefull for any advice at all, espically from people operating in either UK OR IRELAND!!
Thanks
