A sexy hairdressers car! Why burn an extra 60l of fuel per hour when you don't want to sling anything? It is certainly a better option than the Jetranger which is 50 year old technology.

We've used 120s for utility work. They're not to bad. Not quite a 350 though.
I would call it more of a sports car than a "Hairdressers car" Unless you're refering to the fan that blows hot air?

My personal favorite in the helicopter aesthetics category has to go to the Bell 222
Tango and Cash ... look at you! Soon to be EC fellow favoring a Bell product! Good on you buddy!

Oh! come on you guys, the designer must have been that famous Capt who later designed the R66. My nice looking helicopter award has to go to the 222/230/430. The Gazelle a close second.

EC120 - Please!
If you want a REAL single engine small aircraft..Get a B407. You can fill every seat and a full bag of gas and still scream during take off.. I've had it at MGW and it still took off at 1000 fpm.
And don't even compare it to a Squirrel (what a name!). It's sleeker and doesn't have that nasty "servo transparency" problem.

I find screaming during take off upsets the pax
