That's beyond awful, and would be criminal. You got people's lives at stake and you're peddling defective parts. You should be ashamed to even post that.
$341 is the avg. for maint & fuel per hours used annually.
Insurance can swing depending on the useage, but typically runs about $8,000 / month.
Airtime on this one is 1,325 hours.
Price is $1,195,000
Surprised insurance is that low. I sat next to a sales guy from boeing helicopters once a plane. He told me they get a ton of enquires on helicopters from athletes and celebs, but as soon as they find out the cost of insurance they run.

It's a little disturbing that the insurance is that high.

depends on the insurance i guess. i had an uncle that ran helicopters for about 15 years and he hit a point where it made more sense to have limited companies that operated at arms length from any individual then get liability insurance.
I'm sure there are varing degrees of what an insurance/liability policy for a helicpter will cover/pay out and that would effect the price of the policy.

They have 15 helicopters so maybe they get that insurance on a volume price. He did say it could run way more depending on what the useage is and the pilots who will be flying it.
The FAA N-number for that helicopter has an interesting past.
In 1968 a 28 year old pilot flying a Cessna 150 with the tail number of N8265F stalled the aircraft doing a unwarranted low pass and basically totalled the aircraft.
After that, A Piper PA-28 had that N-number and its listed as destroyed.
Call me superstitious, but the first thing I would do if I bought this bird would get an untarnished N number. There is some weird karma floating around that registration.
Otherwise, its a really nice helicopter, and to answer Spotter's question, a CD player isn't all that hard to install.
