Dynamic - you are correct! However, those are all pilot things! When it becomes a hangar queen and you can't make money, it becomes a different story!
I love flying the AS 350/355, they're great ships, but if I can run a company with something else first, I will do it.

If the machine is going to be a hangar queen, why not buy something like an 206 L3 or L4? They cost a fraction of the price of the 407 and B3/B4 and have a better safety record.(Easier Autos).
paco-We operate AS350s and I would not change them for anything else. A 407 would not be able to do what we do.I think it was said earlier- the french products are good, but the after sales service is lacking BIG TIME.
It has not yet affected us to the degree where we would swap to a different manufacturer.I do however think that the Honeywell engine conversion on the BA and B2 are excellent ideas and can't wait for the B3 version.![Evil](https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies/evil.gif)
These are just my opinions.Please don't loose sleep over them![Bad teeth](https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies/badteeth.gif)
