Boys...boys...boys! Settle down.
Are we talking about a comparison of types for training or revenue?
Training> You can't beat the Robbo cost, it is simply cheaper to fly a piston.
Performance> The 206 is a long proven work horse and is in no way threatened by the R44.
Lets not forget that everyone has to start somewhere and for some it's Turbine and others it's piston.
We all started somewhere, we all just didn't get there yet.
Cheers,
