rotorheadrob 8 Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Just because it was sold doesn't mean things were bad, maybe the offer was just too good to pass up. Everything is for sale, if the price is right! rob Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Everything is for sale, if the price is right! rob Hmmm guess that could explain why I have yet to sell my 72 Datsun 510. Perhaps my asking of $12,000 because of its 'antique' status is too high?

skystar 0 Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Heard that Gemini's 'for sale' deal went Belly Up!!! Good luck with their ASRD bid rate of $2100/hr for their Bell 205-A++ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
snark 3 Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Heard that Gemini's 'for sale' deal went Belly Up!!! Good luck with their ASRD bid rate of $2100/hr for their Bell 205-A++ Low yes. Still 1000/ Hour above the lease rate for a 205, and 300,000 per year (6 month) guarentee + side marigin for paying crews and such. 5 Years of guarenteed income to support the 205 alone is worth getting that contract at that rate. Gemini is a top notch operator and if they choose to offload the 205 for a few years to help with cost measures. Good on them. This is not the same thing as a 944/ hr short term contract for a B3 Astar. I would'nt try to make it out as such. I would'nt be hoping for Gemini to go belly up for the sake of watching them go belly up. They have good equipment and behave very professionally. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This may be true, but building it all on the house of cards that is credit, can only last so long. The aren't the only ones either. AR Quote Link to post Share on other sites
helidriver68 1 Posted January 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 its still bulls**t ,any way you look at it , come on the going rate is $3200 /hour and they bid $2100 , come on , maybe 2700 or something close , but then again I guess I never saw the bid results for all the other companies , can someone post em up here, I suppose guardian went $945 for his 205 lol , oh by the way anyone hear is he still sitting in the dom repub or where ever ? awaiting to get into haiti lol lol , supposedly spent $250k on getting 3 heli down ther by renting a hurc, no doubt his buddy marchenski set that up for him hook line and sinker , this industry is becoming a joke , I am glad I dont have to relie on it to live on . it was so very good just 4 years ago , now theres way too much bull and back stabbing , neck cutting , going on , you know a guy might just as well go sell used cars , or run for politics as to be in this business anymore and get caught up in the middle , Quote Link to post Share on other sites
