Save a few more pennies and get a 155; you know it makes sense;)

The honest answer is that neither the 355N nor the 135 are ideal ships for corporate operations and once again the more pertinent question is not which EC aircraft is better for these ops but rather can they even hold a candle to the new Agusta Grand.

You're not wrong the 155 and Grande look great aircraft (Sloane sending spec) but I'm looking for something that is a similiar size to 135/355.

I'm open to correction on this one from anyone with a better knowledge than I, but isnt the AB139 the EC155 rival and thus the Grande and Power are 145 and 135 rivals respectively?

Cripes ...... the AB139 and the EC155 can't really be compared ...

On paper the AB 139 leaves the EC 155 way behind ....

BUT ... it is also bigger and more expensive to operate (two pilots) etc ?????

Of course "time will tell" ..........
