Skidz Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 I think you'll find pretty much all helicopters are sold through brokers. I've seen a couple on these sites: http://www.rotorsales.com/inventory.asp http://www.helicoptersales.com/ http://www.aeroads.ca/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skidz Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 Why a III? The twos are a lighter airframe. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I've flown both IIs and IIIs here in LA, and I find tail rotor authority to be definitely much better in the III, especially at altitude... But hey, that's just me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But hey, that's just me... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ever land one at 11,000 feet in the summer? That will really show the difference in the performance. I rarely saw a Jetbox with less than 15,000 hours on it in my former job on the light stuff. It was really rare to see a BIII in our fleet, I have most of my JetRanger time on 206A models that were converted to 206B models. Very light until the BC forest service started adding heavy requirements to them. Also had a lot of weight added to a converted A model when an oil leak on the deck soaked into the honeycomb fuselage during a summer. It was mind boggling how the lightest 206 airframe in the fleet suddenly became one of the heaviest. The 206BIII has a much heavier airframe, partly to support the bigger tailrotor. I haven't flown a light helicopter in quite a while but will again someday. 407Driver is the best man to help me out here he has countless hours driving them into the high country.
