Whirly - not knocking the 'usual' stuff at all. Just lamenting the lack of availability of more unusual stuff for hire (mainly due to the fact that Permit aircraft cannot be hired out).
Good responses guys'n'gals, keep 'em coming.
To date I have flown 52 different types (and learned something from every one, spamcan or not!)
As for groups etc - I have been considering a CAP-10b (or c) but decided that lack of readily avaiable hangarage and possibly rather large share price might make it non-viable.
As for Wilgas - yes, they can be fitted with skis, and floats and Infra-red equipment and a Blue Flashing light on the belly (see Polish Border Guard aircraft - most amusing 'NeeNaaNeeNaa' and so on)
