Let's just all revel in the fact and be grateful that another Robbo has been reduced to scrap.
Sorry TC, but unfortunately Robinson is producing them faster than they're being crashed!
Torrance, CA— Robinson Helicopter Company continues to be the world’s leading producer of civil helicopters. In 2011, the company produced 356 helicopters (212 R44s, 88 R66s and 56 R22s), more than double 2010’s production of 162.
While the R44 remains Robinson’s top selling helicopter, the response to its latest model, the R66 Turbine, has been very strong. The R66 was FAA certificated in October 2010. As of December 31, 2011, total orders received for the new model exceeded 360.
