Bell 47 in Vegas
Have not seen any flying around here at all, seen on a few months back in a hangar in Boulder City, NV (about a 30min drive from the Vegas strip). It was looking like it was in the process of restoration. Still have not actually seen it flying though. Will ask around and let you know what I come across though.

Bell 47 in Vegas
EC155mech, sad to say that I have had no luck in tracking down a Bell 47 here in Sin City. The one I talked about in Boulder City is still in restoration, which is on hold due to lack of available funding for completion. If any new news comes about will let you know...Sorry my friend.
Hey, if you can't find a '47 to drive, how about the next best thing!

These guys used to have a 47 available in Los Angeles area, about a 4 hour drive. You'd have to check with them to see if it's still there.
