LeadSled, have an open mind looking at everything at the moment, leaning towards low time, less than 5 year old 206's, mainly due to some of our work involves longer legs of 2-3 hours. 206 is a bit quicker and that bit of TAS over a year saves a heap of maintenance time as well as not running up TT on the aircraft.
Do admit though looks like the G8 is cheaper to maintain, so what you loose on one you pickup on the other. Lot of other operators I know are heading towards the Air van, they seem to have good reports so far.
