Jeffrey. Chuck our Bell 430 broker told me he is looking for an investor to purchase the Bell 430 in London. Chuck knows the Bell 430 market has no low time machines currently, and with only 130 total ships built, this could be a good helicopter worth looking at. The owner wants to sell the helicopter "As Is" I'm not endorsing a purchase like this, but could be worth looking at the machine since I'm close. Chuck is hedging to purchase the Heli at a low price and bring it to the states and refurbish and make airworthy to sell. He's thinking S1.5M offer. I thought I would share this info if you think it is appropriate for me to visit the Bell 430 tomorrow, if our flight schedule permits? The helicopter appears to be US registered still with an "N" number., its a 2001 with 1660 hours, supposedly fresh engines and helicopter is being stored at this time at an airport 45 min outside of London. here is the web link: _http://www.controller.com/listingsdetail/aircraft-for-sale/BELL-430/2001-BELL- 430/1224965.htm?_ (http://www.controller.com/listingsdetail/aircraft-for-sale/BELL-430/2001-BELL- 430/1224965.htm) asking price is $2.6M I could take detail photos of the engine, main rotor and tail rotor and fwd to Edwards & assc. in Fort Lauderdale for their opinion,. high dollar items; auto pilot servos overhaul, 572,000.00 / main rotor alstimeric bearings, main rotor head- $55,000.00 / engine overhaul if needed, $125,000 each / paint $65,000.00 / interior $40,000.00 should I view the Bell 430? thank you, Larry A unique opportunity to purchase a very high specification Bell 430 with over $500k worth of optional extras.
