So here's the rub...

IF I wanted to start a commuter serice using helicopters, for a 120NM one way trip between 2 major urban markets, what would be the best best for aircraft? Operating between heliports located at 2200-3800MSL, temps between -30 and +25.

S76? kinda tight for that time frame
Dauphin?
AB139?
B430?

Any ideas would be appreciated...I'm not sure that the economics will work, but I want to go thru the exercise anyway...

thanks

Let's see, you say you're from Canada (yes I know, silly assumption you actually want to operate there) and looking at the elevations you're quoting...........................hmmm, how far apart are Calgary and Edmonton??? :p :ok:
