Cheers ...never seen the baggage pods on a Squirrel.... very handy to know. I flew a 44 with them mounted and found them very handy. Thanks for info on the models ..makes it so much easier to digest all the model numbers when seen on that format. Starting to get a feel from all the reading now that Lycoming engines are the way to go .seems the comments echoed in here reflect the reading I've been doing over the past few days.

You'd prob know the answer to this ..presume you flew for Island Hoppers in Fiji ...We used one of their AS350's to medevac a customer off the island ..they flew out with a stretcher in situ laying beside the pilot on the floor. Is much of a mod required for the fitting of the stretcher and are purpose built seats required to replace the factory seats in order to get them out in a timely manner to fit the stretcher or do operators simply unbolt the existing seats?
