That ebay 44 looks really nice - anyone know the machine?

Hi
My R44 astro is for sale currently. You can see the details and a picture at www.helideals.co.uk In brief it now has about 1550 TT and was built October 1994. She is always hangared and I have spent a considerable amount on her. She had new MR blades and spindles just over a year ago. No accident history. All of the usual avionics, with the exception of a VOR. Blue/Silver with Blue Leather interior and integral colour GPS. Night kit fitted. No Decals on airframe. Price includes a Jara Aviation Helimover. I will accept £79,000 minimum +VAT. I am happy to fly to wherever you are if you are serious Jon P ([email protected]) - PM me if you need phone numbers |
Mike Smith at Heliair would know where to get one or two . .

kissmysquirrel, I can't see the problem with buying an aircraft from ebay, in fact it would probably be much safer than buying a car through them, and that happens all the time. At least you'd get a survey..!
I wouldn't suggest just placing a bid, or in this particular case, 'Buying it Now', then sending off your cheque, waiting the obligatory 5 - 7 days for it to clear, then popping down to what ever dark and dusty corner of England it happens to be stored and flying off. You would obviously get it checked, just the same as if you had met a guy in the local pub and he had happened to ask "Hey, YOU don't want to buy a helicopter, do you?. Which incidentally was the way I bought my last heli. :ok: If you don't want to be associated with such a vulgar practice as bidding on ebay, give me the cash and I'll do it for you.......honest := :E :E :cool: |
Look on the Heliscott website. G-RFUN Raven 1. Flew it last week, very nice. Has about 500ish hours.

Pretty R44 paint schemes???
We are perplexed as to how we can possibly make a Robinson R44 look a little sleeker. (Don't laugh)
Does anybody have any photos of great paint jobs on any R44's?? I appreciate any help here! Thank you in advance for a reply. |
13snoopy,
I have seen so many attempts, and they just don't work. I have yet to see a 44 that looks better than any other!! Sorry, IMHO it's a lost cause!! |
That's Tiger helicopters Hangar, give them a ring 01568708028 and ask for Garry.:ok:

This has to be the worst heli paint job of all time!
It looks like a flying tablecloth!! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...ads/376494.jpg |
Why were they (Robinson) so intent on keeping the R44 looking like a blown-up version of the R22?? And to sort of cover the rear-sides of the engine with the extra cowling and then just chop it all off underneath that long skinny tailcone is hideous.
Suffice to say, almost any solid color looks bad. I think this has to be the ugliest helicopter of the big companys. Any more replys keep them coming. Thank you! |

What do you mean??? My living room curtains look the same!!! Are you telling me I'm a man with out taste for fashion? ;) |
In response Heli-Ice and considering your Icelandic roots, I have just one word to say - Bjork !

Levitation is levitation, pure magic whatever helicopter you're in.

Especially in a Rotorway. You have to savor those precious hovering moments, cause they could stop at any time in a rotorway!! ETC |
