For Dick Smith--
Do you remember flying your 206 to Knoxville, Tennessee, USA for the 1982 World's Fair? You landed at KDKX and my boss who ran the local area Bell Service Center met you there. I was flying charter in Bell 206's for him at the time and spoke with you briefly. I have a photo of myself putting a blade tiedown on your aircraft while waiting for the fuel service truck. Happy days.
i sure do. That was the first day of my solo world flight.
Wow, was i inexperienced. Thanks for the help.
There is an article covering some of my adventures in the August 2011 issue of HELINEWS ASIA PACIFIC.

Longest trip..
Well looking at some of the above, mines not that long but great fun
..
I did the same trip Canadian Rotorhead did:
San Juan to Fort Lauderdale bit, same route, then Up to KLNS PA in a 206!
I ferried an AStar from Lake Charles to Anchorage.
Both awesome trips, and numb bum after the 1st one.

as far as you can go
Redhill, England to Auckland, New Zealand in an EC130. The back seats were out and replaced with a fuel tank. Total capacity 1250 litres. It's a big planet
