Alouette II
 

Hello,

I look for Alouette IIs for sale. Anybody out there knows where to find one?

Thanks!!!!:ok:

Where are you based ? 313 or 318 ?

Check your PMs!

Are you looking for a 313?

Nigel

either a 313 or 318. Do you have a source?

Cheers,

Alouette:ok:

There's a 313B in Canada for around $159K and a 318C in Washington state for $300K. Check Barnstormers and TAP. Both Standard Category I believe.

Probably there is one 318 for sale in north italy.. look for Eli Express

Alouette 2
 

I am living in France, and some Alouette 2 are still flying, depending of remaining time on each component you are looking for, My nearby friend owns one, and tries to sell it.
I have a long career on Alouette 313 and 318, and to maintain it is not an easy thing :=, but this machine is very safe and powerful, but greedy in fuel.
Any question don't hesitate.

regards

alain

I have been looking for some technical training notes for the Alouette 2 and for the
Artouste 11 in English or French. If anyone has a set that they do not want or that can be copied please contact me. Actually any language would be ok!!!

Enstrom Pilot's Sud-Est SE3130 Alouette II HA-IDL as seen at Goodwood on 15th October 2006 (Photo: Andrew Scott)

And very nice she looks too EP! Bravo!

Eric: Looks like you're off to Eastbourne to do some photocopying! You should take VFR440 with you as he wanted to check-out a prospective instructional airframe.

EP: Do you think there is a market to offer your craft for hire with an instructor so that those wishing to encounter something a little different could come drive her around for a couple of hours? Ie. an 'Alouette Experience"!

Now that is a nice photograph.

alooette to trail fly
 

hi

Savoia

nice Idea, I am sure other pilots would be pleased to fly an hr or two, spread the word !

Instructors are few and far between - it MAY be possible for somebody like Tim Price to do so - he is local (ish) to me (has an FAA instructor ticket so may be OK ?) - or Loen Smith at Booker

If trail flight is considered 'instruction' may need a TRTO (or EASA Equivalent )?

As Ha-IDL (313b) is Annex II there may be issues on training in non EASA aircraft ???

But I do have HA-WKS and HA-WKZ - both EASA 318c (later version) that could serve. All have great hrs remaining and fully serviceable (of course).

keeping all 3 machine serviceable is a bit silly for just my personal flying, its a long story how it happened, may sell one, but not very committed to do so.

I would be more than happy for others to experience the machine, costs could be modest

Al2's have loads of power, loads of lift, loads of endurance (318c good for 4 hrs ? - 100 nmile range - are very low work load to fly, have great reserve for auto's etc

These machines a re a bit of a relic, but they are SO viable and still hold there own against younger designs. nothing gets close for operating costs, more R22 territory than, say, Jet box money, set against R44 - al2 compares very well.

And the 313b engine (particularly) make just the best noises ! - a smile on your face every time the 'autostart' fires up the big noisy thing above the BIG fuel tank !

Thanks for the pic

Ian

That's good information!!!!:ok: I will send a pm!!!!

Cheers,

Alouette

B.E.A.S Alouette 2, had a colour change when Dollar operated it.

I can understand the commercial reasons for Eurocopter wanting to put this familly of aircraft to the sword but I for one will really miss them when they are gone.

Hi Ian,

This is fascinating! How are you able to operate them so inexpensively? Is it that they just don't require a lot of maintenance and parts? No doubt they do drink a lot of juice?

Is there anywhere to put bags?

" Is there anywhere to put bags? "

You must use the place as for Lama

Can you see nets by fuel tank? this is where you can put the baggage - only ask pilot not to fly in rain.

If you are operating Alouette II, then know if you need the Lama can lift you!
