Performance Hot and High?
Anybody that has operated it care to comment on the Hot and High Performance of the helicopter.
The Density Altitudes we operate are between 8 and 14 thousand, we currently operate a A109SP and the time of the year where only 2 passengers can be carried out of 6 passenger seats is coming, the boss is asking about this one, but I have heard that it is a great helicopter until it reaches altitude.
Our 109SP Grand New becomes a dog in couple of months around here, I am not wrong when I say you can carry a lot more in a Bell 407 in May.
Not really worried about OEI performance, we are used to the fact from our 109SP, just AEO performance.
Thank you
