I think overall on PPRuNe, the majority of the comments are aimed at the handling, not the type.

Anyway...

I'd like to see a few of the regulars on here try to muster livestock low level for hours on end in the Australian outback in OAT's of over 37
... would we have to keep within certifications?



It may lack creature comforts but the Robbo does what it says on the tin.
...and more

"The R22 has been the most popular model for these types of operations, but owners and operators need to fully appreciate the stresses placed on aircraft during mustering operations, and the characteristics of aerial mustering operations, which may be quite different the type of flying for which the type originally received certification."
