Does anyone have a lead on someone who could do a pre-buy inspection for me on a B2 in Pennsicola, Fl?

Thanks for the help, John

John,

You might check with the SunHelo guys. I think they have a pretty good mechanic and they are in Florida I believe. Harold Jenkins is the go to guy for the Brantly. His number can be found under servicing at the left of the page. I'd also be happy to do it for you. I'm in Seattle but I have a friend who can get me pretty cheap buddy passes through his airline. I'm a pilot, A&P, 12+ years maintaining helis, B2B owner.

I talked to Mark at SunHelo, I just need to make the decision to buy it now.

John,

Glad to hear you connected up with Mark. Make sure you get a pre-buy done by someone with experience on the Brantly though, either through them or someone else. I've seen way too many helicopters that looked good on paper or from the outside that turned out to cost thousands of dollars to make right in the end. A little money on the front end can save you thousands on the back end! Best of luck.
