Is that £350 inclusive of VAT? I hire a 22 for £210 an hour inclusive. Seems jolly expensive to me. I had a very preliminary look into buying a G2 as a private owner. Financially, the R22 wins hands down, despite the claims of cheap engineering costs. You can own an R22 for 24 years and still not pay the purchase cost of a G2. I'd love a G2, but at their current cost I'd rather have an R44.
