Jet Ranger 206 Trolley required and skid floats
 
Hi All,

I am new to this world, I have just purchased a half share in a 1993 Jet Ranger 206.

I am only currently learning to fly, but use it for going to and from england on a regular basis which means flying over water lots.

I require the following items and could do with some help.

Trolley/tug to suit
Skid emergency floats

Any help/recommendations would be great

Just land it on the back of a truck---problem solved. This is how we used to get the aircraft back and forth from the office to the airport every day in Hawaii:

Gordy, is that you acting as ballast on the front so the truck does not tip over? :E

That truck rig is so flash you wouldn't even have to fly. Just bolt the skids to the deck, sit in the cockpit with a gin and have Jeeves drive the truck.

Lowest helicopter operating cost. Ever.

And lowest helicopter company also...took me 9 months waiting for a slot to open up with one of the other island operators. This company eventually closed its doors after a fatal accident killing 4 people.
