Buying, selling, managing, flying helicopters
Most people who want to own helicopters do not have the time or knowledge to be able to acquire one; or know what to do with it when acquired. I have been flying helicopters since 1979, buying and selling them since 1994 and managing them for private clients since 2002. I am independent of any manufacturer, operator, insurance companies, dealers or brokers and can thus give unbiased advice in all sectors.
Buying
From the first decision about whether a helicopter is the right option for you, through ownership vs charter choices, finding the best type for your requirements and all the way through to actually buying the right one at the right price, my aim is to take all the hassle out of the process for you.
Selling
If you have a helicopter to sell I can, by using international databases and a large network of contacts worldwide, ensure a global audience. All the way through the selling process, which can be complex, I can keep the owner at arm's length from the transaction, sifting the wheat from the chaff, doing all the negotiating, contracting and paperwork. And all at an agreed fee.
Management
Many private owners want a helicopter exclusively for their own use rather than letting it be used by unknown passengers on charter trips which tend to rack up the hours and which increases the wear on the components and decreases the maintenance intervals. Wouldn't it be nice to almost forget the helicopter except when you want to use it? I offer a total management service which looks after the maintenance, the hangarage, the crewing, the insurance etc. When you want to fly, your helicopter will be ready on time with a pilot you know, with all maintenance carried out and immaculately presented. I will scrutinize and pay all the associated invoices on the owner's behalf and present one monthly invoice to recharge them at cost. Hassle-free helicopter ownership!
Flying
Although I have been flying helicopters for over 30 years in many different types of operations I still really enjoy it and satisfy my craving by backing up the pilots who fly the helicopters I manage. Apart from getting me out of the office it gives me first-hand operational experience of a wide variety of helicopters. There are very few helicopter consultants out there and virtually no others that also fly.
