merlin III

Been looking for a plane and explored many but at the moment I cant find a MERLIN III operated in this country . Does anyone operate one over here or have anything good or bad to say about them?

Merlins, Jetstreams, Cheyennes - bejasus you really haven't got a clue what you want have you! And all this without a licence.

If you're serious and some of your posts aren't total B.S then I would suggest you actually find someone who knows about operating something bigger than a spam can (I do, but I'm not into time wasters - ask if you want) rather than cruising internet fora where 90% of the readership don't have a clue.

(ps - also ex TG9)

Thanks

No not trying to waste anyones time, just trying to find out if we can realistically operate an aircraft to get people to and from this Boat, the more I read and talk to people the more it sounds a lot cheaper to just charter a plane when we need to go . Each plane has its pros and cons and some are cheaper to buy and some are a complete pain to own.
Any advice is is really welcome oh and you missed out Chieftains,,, they seem the cheap option but a pain to fly to SPAIN OR FRANCE in .
Keep the comments coming....thanks again

PM me and I will put you in touch with a Jetstream operator with an executive nine seat fit who may charter you the machine with pilots.

Never call it

A plane being something you shave wood with? Sorry, do they have feelings? Thanks for the emails and assistance , I have been amazed at how willing people are to share their wisdom and aviation knowledge.We are getting there slowly ..
