Helicopter futures by
Robert M. Gary
My neighbor is training with Silver State helicopters in Sacramento.
They claim there are helos sitting around with no one to fly them and
that pay can be expected in the $100,000 area. Our local DE thinks they
are crooks but I think he just thinks that because they do their
checkrides out of town...

retired-allen
I am looking for someone who has used the Flight Link hardware with either
X-Plane or MSFS 2004 (R-22 simulation) and whether or not they would
recommend it for a prospective heli pilot.

UH-12B by
brien
Thinking of buying a OH-23B, the wood blades are bad just how hard are they
to find, and at what cost $$$.
Also the OH-23 never had the airworthness cert issued, this should be the
same as the UH-12B . I believe I can get the standard airworthness cert with
a DAR and conformity with the original...

Should I be irked or not? by
Ol Shy & Bashful

that you can't get fuel?
I'd sure let the owner know.

Uh-1B by
brien
I have been looking for a UH-1 for several years for experimental exhibition
as a war bird. I have found two of them with no paperwork no log books no
traceable bill of sale to the U.S. Government for the original sale or for
that matter to the last owner. I have been told this is not that...

Jet Helicopter Question by
Dick
In reviewing the Vortec Jet Helicopter plans, a reference is made to a "fuel
transfer mechanism" modification to the rotor hub/control head.
Although somewhat familiar with fixed wing fuel systems, I can't picture a
"fuel line connection" between a stationary mast and a rotating blade??
Can...

Used Helicopter sales by
Brien
Is this a good time to buy or not. I see 269a and R-22 for sale a little
higher price than a year ago but wonder how the market is. Are Helicopters
selling for close to asking prices or do they have to be discounted
considerable to sell?

Ah, the joys of ANR.... by
Jim
Save some money, you don't need new glasses. I wear glasses and solved
the problem by buying a pair of "Oregon Aero" ear seals. Most pilot
shops have them. They are a bit more expensive then other high end
brands but these do the trick and function as "seals" efectively. Try
them, you'll lile...

4 types in 2 days by
B4RT
I got the excellent opportunity to fly an EC120, AS350, Jet Ranger, and 407
all within a two day span. And the winner is: The Bell 407.
There are features I really like about the Eurocopters like their cabin
layout,
comfy seats, excellent maintenance access, and baggage storage areas.
However,...

Ohhhhhh Micbloo by
Shiver Me Timbers
So are the sounds of rotors keeping you awake this week.
Spotlights lighting up your bedroom at 3 AM.
Subway traffic disrupted for you and the family.
Radio traffic blasting from your scanner's speaker.
Are you feeling a deep rooted urge to vote in the next few months.
