Less Tail authority is another problem. We used to have EC130s for tours in NYC and while landing at W30th heliport with a strong tail wind in the AS350 was never an issue, the 130 had major problems with it. We don't have them any more partially due to that reason from what I'm told.

I guess the Vegas or Hawaii guys could chime in on that one cause they're still using them.
