And my favourite helicopter is...
I can’t find a thread like this...
Just wondered what the favorite helicopter of choice is out there and for what reason?
Just to get things started I think mine has to be the Dauphin, spectacular looking machine, would like the opportunity to pilot one!

p.s. I like slinging and do not like self boarding cargo.

Bell 47
Learned to fly in it.
Though I may be far away think only this of me. There shall always be a place in my heart that is, forever, 47 shaped.

Hughes 500
No prizes for guessing my favourite. Has to be the good ole 500. Looks gorgeous on tall skids. Only have a handful of hours in an old OH-6A 
but it carves through the turns so beautifully compared to the R44.

And what exactly are the issues that affect you as a professional pilot?

For a first post, you came out with a zinger! So tell us, "professional" pilot,
what issues would you like to talk about, so we don't waste any more of
your time? By the way, I love everything about the 407.

500E, Like a great woman, it looks sexy in black, its quiet, its fast, has nice long legs, Is smooth and when you rock on in to the party all your mates want a turn too. (and it doesn't mind if you fly other machines)
No offence intended to any of our lovely female posters out there
