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
