bigboy22 Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 Hello everyone , my name is john and I wanted to look at the other side of the coin .. i know everyone on here ( and mostly myself lol ) is look on how to do flight training the safest and the LOWEST cost ..well im interested in seeing what is possible if say you had unlimited funds .. not a loan or not even a few grand saved up and not even training in the military ... So what do yall think you could do ... contract with military or buy a helo and a private instructor or all factory training ..?? lets all just dream here!! Quote
r22butters Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 With unlimited funds, I'd buy a Bell 222, deck it out like a small Winnebago, and spend the rest of my life flying around the world. Quote
permison Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 Ahh....gotta love those rainy days when the only thing you can fly is the couch. I would buy a huge sail boat to live off and then by a sea plane (Grumman Goose) and (also) a Bell 222, but I would outfit it like Airwolf and hire myself out as a merc. Quote
67november Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 well unlimited funds and ability to hire a training pilot, I would have to leave that poor underpowered 222 sit by the way side and go with the 412, if you're gonna, go big Quote
Lindsey Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 I'd pay for all my certifications and buy a fleet of military helicopters - UH60 and OH-58 mainly. Then I'd buy a fleet of civilian choppers, and teach kids to fly them. No charge, I'm rich, remember? I'd also do as many SAR missions as humanly possible free of charge. I like R22butter's idea - get a chopper, fly it around the world. Throw a ton of money into Research and Design to make them safer, throw some money into the industry so schoolhouses don't collapse because of the economy. Uh what else. Oh yes, and world peace.

Goldy Posted September 27, 2009 Posted September 27, 2009 Oh yes, and world peace. Are you in a bikini with flowers in your hand standing in front of a mic just then???? Personally, I love everything about the 412EP but I think I would rather have a AW109 or 119. What fast sleek looking ships those two are. Goldy Quote
adam32 Posted September 27, 2009 Posted September 27, 2009 I'd go with an S-61N or an MD530F...contract work all over the world with them!! Quote
Lindsey Posted September 27, 2009 Posted September 27, 2009 Are you in a bikini with flowers in your hand standing in front of a mic just then???? And that would be the joke. Quote
Goldy Posted September 27, 2009 Posted September 27, 2009 And that would be the joke. Yeah, kinda figured that...didn't know if anyone else was playing ! Quote
