Wings in Westchester have a S300. Pegasus in Linden NJ have 22's and a 44, Princeton have a few incl. 44. Most reasonable turbine in the area is a 206 at Yalesville for ~$900/hr. Atlantic/Eastern/what ever they go by have a 44 though mixed reviews.

Unfortuneately the "home of helicopters" is not particularly SFH friendly, you will have to fly with an instructor (though if it is just a short trip probably not a big deal), and your flight will typically just be a cross country/sightseeing trip then back to base.

There are pruners who can put you in touch wih folk at Princeton and Yalesville if they read this, I can introduce you to Wings if you would like an intro.

Let me know if I can be of assistance.
