HAI Heli Expo - Who's going?

I'm thinking of heading over to the HAI Heli expo in Houston as our 130 will be out of action having an autopilot installed. Any other Ppruners attending this event?

It's a pity the shortsighted financiers shut down the old R88 program, with such an accelerated design program it could have been flying at the expo!

Not this year.....will be working on capturing that Trophy Wife and quaffing cheap rum drinks on Luna C. One can dream about Trophy's I guess!

Perhaps Whirls will show up in her Go-Go's and Bee Hive!

Sigh

I just don't know what other aircraft is going to be able to meet the requirements that I needed, like the R88 could provide.

Cap'n, what do you suggest?

I am sure you are as devastated as we all are by the 88's shut downed development.

Do we have any last pictures of the Capra aegagrus hircus?

I suppose Sikorsky is always an alternative?

Heli_Man,

Welcome to Rotorheads: not a bad first post, but that isn't the prototype of Capt Hollywood's R88, is it

Thanks SP,
and no, my machine is leaps and bounds ahead of the Hollywood R88 project.
I plan to be fitting it out with quite a few mod cons this year too which will keep it on the cutting edge. Will keep you posted.

Cheers
