Helicopter ownership for profit?

I probably know the answer to the question but would welcome others thoughts:

Nicely retired now but I would like to keep current (just for the sake of it) and I have a few oportunities now to "invest" in a piston helicopter. Robbie, H300, Enstrom, B47.

What I would like to ask is if you had the oportunity what options are there to get something back on the airframe and how would you do it? My initial thoughts are one of hopelessness but then again if this were the case there wouldn't be any commercial operators? So how exactly (without an AOC) can you get a return from a 1/2 decent airframe?
