AB206 with B parts in NZ?
Hi - wonder if any maintenance expert in NZ could opine on this?
For example, Oceania have a delightful and no doubt superbly maintained old but low time ex Austrian mil AB206A for sale for less than the price of a R44. According to the component sheets it has been spruced up with a number of B parts including main blades etc. (There's also an Kiowa for sale in Aus even cheaper).
As has been discussed extensively, some jurisdictions don't allow this, and this could lead to the ship being grounded. Is that the case in NZ?
If this is ok in NZ, it would still make the machine hard to export, but could also mean that there are plenty of cheap 'untouchable' mixed parts machines around the world that could be quite happily working in NZ.
Oh, any probs with parts for C18?
I wonder?
