Ferry flights in the US?

Hi
Just wondering if anyone knows of any ferry flights in the US? I'm after R44 time but if anything else is available I'd be interested. Currently I'm in the final stages of my commercial at about 120hrs so would like this to help bump it up. I also have my IR.

Thanks!

Call Cloud 9 Helicopters or Ocean Helicopters, both in South Florida. They sometimes have ferry flights at a reduced rate.

there's US-centered helicopter website that has some ad-hoc offers of cheaper flight time (let students/grads pay for the ferry), few possibly free/genuine ones, some sort-of ferries that are just meant as hourbuilding for the person offering it, while the 'youngster' foots the bill.

Unless you join someone approved by RHC for new ship delivery ferry (I think 500TT+ and mountain crossing experience), you're out of luck trying to fly new ship as a job. Actually, you can't just yet anyway.
