TOT. Interesting post. Nearly £40,000 per year depreciation on an R66 is hardly economical flying as Robinson and some of their dealers infer. This is indeed born out by recent sales ie 3 year old 66s at £425k with very low hours. LOSING approx £120k ie --£40,000 per year. !!!! Then maintain it and deal with ADs SBs etc.-- not cheap flying i think. My 355 costs a fraction of this. Add a conversion course at this price and well....
