Firehawk In Canada ?

unless you are directly involved in the selling of aircraft rates or looking after the pennies, you likely don't know all the factors involved in price variences from one season to the next. There are many factors that might influence how much you charge, but one major reason prices are lower in the winter is supply and demand. Look at your natural gas cost to heat your house, same idea. You know you need to drop your price in slower seasons to get any work. It's the nature of the beast, and cutting each others throats will never stop until Canadian takes over every helicopter in the world. No competition means monopoly.
But in regards to OMNR, if I had a possible chance to buy into a dream, I'd sure try it. Let's just hope they offer the aircraft to other countries when they don't need them, operate them at a decent tarriff rate, and put the profits back into our tax payer pockets.
 
Not sure what that's about, certainly not about buying Firehawks.

OMNR wants to buy a fleet of 47G2's, fill there boots. The Firehawk topic has my back up because of the many reasons stated. NOT CERTIFIED for civilian ues is the first one, gear, price per hour,,,,,,,,,,,,etc. Don't have a medium and don't want one, don't live there, want to see the government actually acountable for their actions would be nice. Who would take the blame for this if they signed a contract for millions of dollars for an aircraft that they couldn't certifiy? Put it on the auction block with some fast ferries from BC eh?


My hourly rate is one of highest in area, the problems you are on about aren't mine. If they bought firehawk to replace the 415's is nose skin of my nose, job security is not the issue here at all, sorry. I am out of here.
