Australian Operators,Mountain Biking

Looking at doing some heli-biking with a Bell 47 or KH-4.
Do any Aussy operators have a rack system for any of the helicopters mentioned or know of anyone that may have one. Any info would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Tend to do a bit of media flying these days and some of the "racks" I have seen although very well designed and perfect in form, would not accomodate your BMX bike.

You might have to get one designed!!!!

Or pinch some one elses "RACK"

Lasty.

You'd have to be careful. Good way to get yourself slapped, going around pinching peoples racks.

Caught up with a bloke at Indy Car last week that may be able to help with your plight.

He knew a fair bit about racks and was pretty knowledgeable.

Guy seems to know his stuff and promoted the rack product very well.

Go here for what's available in the market recently.

Give the Helicopter Line in Queenstown NZ a call. They may be able to point you in the right direction.
Heli-biking is quite popular in New Zealand.
