Question Helicopter Specifications

Chaps and Chapesses, I wonder if you could help me with some fact finding on some Aerospatiale machines, looked everywhere, RAeS and the web but these are eluding me.

HOGE
Economical Cruise Speed
Temperature Limitations

For the Aerospatiale SA 315 B Lama, Aerospatiale SA 313 B Alouette II, Aerospatiale SA 316 A, B and C Alouette III, Aerospatiale SA 318 C Alouette II (Astazou), Aerospatiale SA 319 B Alouette III (Astazou) and the Aerospatiale SA 321 Super Frelon.

Hope you can help.

You could try Conklin and deDecker for this type of information although you would probably have to pay for it!

Blue book values

Managed to find the following in my trusty blue book. No temp limits I'm afraid.

SA315B Lama 15,100 12,795 103 kts
SE-3160/SA-316B Alouette III 4,920 2,800 100 kts
SA-318C Alouette II 2,950 NA 97 kts

Staring at those numbers and seeing variable operating costs from Aircraft Cost Summary got me wondering what keeps certain operators hanging on to their lamas?

According to conklindd Lama costs $1.200 per hour compared to $700 for a 350B3. Performance wise both are good at high altitudes/external payload.

I know there is a difference in spare parts and maintenance when it comes to EU/US but hell, almost twice the cost for lama per hour?

Phoenix,

Acquisition cost cost. Which leads to significantly lower Insurance and finance charges.
