Anyone have any Info on that 109 which..
... is apparently planning on flying round the world soon. it's a black one with the reg of N1US I seem to remember.
I am only curious. I would have thought using the 109 would break any previous speed records providing it goes smooth.

We have the same aircraft - A109S, there are only 2 in the US ours N 613 CC and N 1 US. I was fortunate to be in Philly 2 weeks ago when both were in the same place.
They flew it to the US from Italy and then went to LA - not sure where from then. Good guys - spent a bit of time with them and actually flew the ship before we bought ours.

Good to hear but not too surprised. The 109S is just about the fastest little helicopter available at the moment.
Any chance of a link to the report?
