EC130 vs AS350 in bush ops

Greetings all,

Looking for some genuine advice from thoses in the know...

We are looking at an operation where the width and vis of the EC130 would be advantageous. However, having operated 350's in this environment (B2's and B3's) I have concerns regarding the fenestron in a dusty bush environment.

If anyone has some first hand experience in operating the 130 to non-prepared landing sites, your observations would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks. Fly safe.

MSH
