Crazy

I am not a fan of any Robinson product. One customer had a 120 fcu overhaul £ 25 k which seems excessive v a 250 fcu which was £ 8k !!
Are gearbox modules quite expensive too ?
Love to see a set of blades last 20k in the UK corrosive environment !

Sorry mate I don't know what the internal gearbox parts cost you would have to speak to Airbus :) as for the blades don't forget modern helicopters have composite blades not metal and pig iron ;) .

Also been looking after one for 6 years now and it's has never had so much as a glitch , compared to the R44's and 500's I've looked after that will have at least one out of phase item go caput each year , that's only my experience mind
