helicopterjim Posted July 17, 2005 Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 Why would Eurocotper have a medium helicopter when they have a B3 Astar that can outbucket your medium???? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> So they could have something to compete with the 407!

Skidz Posted July 17, 2005 Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 According to the docs I have, 407 max external lift is 2500lbs (about the same as a B2). B3 can lift 3000lbs... Now a Koala, at 3700lbs lift would be cat's *** ! :up: :up: :up: To borrow Elvis' favorite animated Gif... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetbox Posted July 18, 2005 Report Share Posted July 18, 2005 So they could have something to compete with the 407! You're kidding right??! The B3 is so far beyond the 407, it's actually sad!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cap Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 A B3 is going to "out-bucket" a Medium at 3000 lbs? Really? A Koala lifts 3600lbs? Really? I also heard at one time that when the Koala showed up in Manitoba to work for Manitoba Forestry that that would be the last you see of Mediums there because it would put "the run" to all of them. Really?........I'm still waiting and perhaps someone could advise when that date will be or in what year? Next I'll hear that the B3 outworked a Medium with the -17B.
