Sweet!!!

 

Very cool!

 

Very nice. My uncle used to have an Enstrom. Fly Safe!

 

OMG wow, congrats. Fly safe! I am really behind here.

Where do you park it, on your yacht, rooftop landing pad, or in your backyard?

 

Cool.

 

Chuck, love the fact that your Helicopter is the luxury model.. Here is a short video of the start-up and take off. Man that Turbine is awesome!!

Thanks everyone, I appreciate your kind words. It is an amazing machine...it is kind of a sports car of helicopters.

For everyone who said it..I'll be careful. This particular model of helicopter has NEVER had a death and I don't intend to be the first. <gr>

For now, it is at the local airport, but I am trying to get approval to land it at my home. I have 40 acres, so I really shouldn't bother anyone. I have a hearing with the local zoning people next week.

Thanks again for you support and kind words.

Chuck

 

Wow, major if you can get approval to land it on your property. Chuck for President!

 

Congrats Chuck. I'm looking forward to getting my private license soon, I have a decent amount of simulator hours under my belt but have not had the chance to fly in the real thing.

my dream helicopter is the MD 530F, I fell in love after watching it perform marvelously in the Italian Job.

 

thats great chuck congratulations... after my first ride in a heli skiing last year I've been determined to get my private pilot's license!

Where abouts did you learn to fly? Training in the States is supposed to be a relatively cost-effective way to learn compared to here in the UK.
