Post Is there a Heli stronger (lifting power) than the Mi 26?

Hi guys

Can anyone answer the above question? Also does anyone know of any available Mi 26 in the DRC area?

Many Thanks

The Mi26 is the strongest, at 20 Metric Tonnes of lifting capacity. Can't answer #2.

Cool

None of them anywhere near DRC to my knowledge.

Expect very expensive operation, $350,000 per month and $3000 per hour is not unusual as well as a mobilisation and demobilisation fee of around $250,000 each way.

Try www.clintondale.com if you want one although the photo on their website is not an MI26.
