So - add £140,000 to the price and you've got enough for a good used RII....

That is the guys from Startrade Heli. Technically he is correct as long as you only plan to fly a few hours in those 5 years. While those guys offer some good prices you really need to read the advertisements carefully and with a great deal of skepticism.

Fly & replace the time life componets as they come due, that so called airframe overhaul is for 135 opperations, pt 91- private ops not an issue, UK has too restrictive rules-you guys got to change that, not good for business.

Ah, the time life components. Would they include the blades? No sign of hydraulic upgrade so what with hydraulics and numerous other upgrades to take the new blades this might not be the bargain of the century.....
