ITS ABOUT TIME THE FACTORY STARTED TO MAKE SOME NOISE ABOUT THE B2B . NEW ROBINSONS ARE PLACED ON EBAY WITH HIGH RESERVE. THIS IS GREAT EXPOSURE.

IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA IF THE FACTORY GOT OFF ITS DUFF AND TRIED TO SELL SOME OF THESE FINE MACHINES.

To follow up on this point, let's turn it to the positive and brainstorm over ways we might suggest to increase exposure and to market the Brantly. We can get creative and I'll be sure to share our ideas with the factory. There are a lot of hard working people at Brantly who would like nothing better than to increase sales and who would be very receptive to our ideas.

Thanks

It's a shame being in the same state as Brantly and you can't get any flight instuction in one unless you own your own B2B. I think the factory should provide flight training for people seeking a rating and having interest in a B2B. If you don't give people a chance to get to know your product up front, you have a hard sale ahead. I'm in the same area as Steve Chenoweth, Dallas DFW area, and I'm having to settle for Hughes 300 training for a add on rating when Brantly is my interest. ( R-22 is not an option for my behind ) Traveling to PA. back and forth for training is unpractical for me at this time. Bottom line, I and others are not a one night stand kind of person, we want to get to know it before we make that kind of commitment.

Thanks,

Mark,

You make a great point. I am trying to do as much research on the Brantly as possible, but seem to always have to ask the individual owners. You're right, if you don't get your product out there and give people knowledge on it, it won't sell.

It's time someone gave Robinson a run for their money. Brantly may be the ticket, but what can we do to get people to want it?

Called this guy. He says he's just a heli salesman and was at the factory on the 28th to take these pics. He is in IN. Seems fishy to me.

Thoughts?

Hey Gary,

Try these Guy's in NC, they use the B2b for training, but it also looks like they are trying to sell off their fleet of B2b's. Let me know what you find out if you get with them please. http://www.eastcarolinahelicopters.com/

I tried to find B2b owners in NC but it came up blank. http://162.58.35.241/acdatabase/DEFIMG.ASP

Thanks,

Hey Mark,

I have been talking with Jerry at East Carolina Helicopters. They lost their hanger lease and the CFI's have left, so he's selling everything. Might be something we'll look at. Been trying to reach him by phone, but his voice mail box is full. I'll work on talking to him again today.

I hate to see it shut down. Maybe we can convince him to move the operation up here.

I'll keep you posted.
