Has anyone started to do aerial photography/filming with the G2? My experience with 2 seat Heles (mainly the R22) was that they were not really suitable/good for this role. The G2 could be different..
I presume no mounts yet?

Delivery timescale
.
About the delivery timescale and according to Guimbal, a G2 ordered today in standart configuration will be delivered between march and april of next year.
Sotiras is right saying that the production rate is increasing so the delivery timescale should decreased unless the orders stay as strong as now !
H500, you should not waste time anymore !

Hello 500e,
That's kind of you to look after your brother H500
I answered by PM.
The warranty is still parts only but as the operators feedbacks about reliability are very good and for this reason the backlog is increasing quickly as well as the delivery time, H500 should not wait too long if he wants his customers flying the G2 next year.

That G-TRDS looks bigger on the inside than the outside
You would prefer the opposite ?!
Two solutions : the cockpit is quite spacious or ... it's a Hobbits' crew !

Well done gentlemen ! 
There is indeed Dr Who in France but I don't follow him so I asked one of my best friend who is specialist (easy for him, his wife is English and was afraid of Daleks when she was young) and I've got the point now : the TARDIS !
(without high-absorption stroking-seats)
