Approximate $1700 USD. VISA card.
If you are sensitive about price $ and W/B a TurtlePac is a great alternative. We see many come through Hawaii on ferry flights. A 33 gallon vertical is perfect for an occasional long distance...
Just wanted to mention that the flight over cold water requires special consideration: PFD, PLB, InReach (or similar) etc etc. Use center flight following or FSS reporting.

Vernatherm needs replacing?
Similar to a hover check on the R44. Depending on the W/B and DA after pulling into a stabilized hover, the MP is noted. If MP is higher or lowered than typically needed, time to trouble shoot and...
Also, check for induction leaks that may be leaning your mixture. A guy at my field had an engine lose (3) of (6) cylinders simultaneously in flight which was not enough to keep airborne. It was a...
Nothing ever gets better with a cylinder from my experience. Start a plan to replace it. GREEN means burning.

Gorilla Tape. Much stronger than duct tape. No gooey mess.
Looks similar to chrome rings on chromed cylinders. What does the screen show?
Personally, I contact Spruce directly if there is an issue (and not post complaints until I talk with Irwin). They seem to work very closely with customers and resolve problems.
I capsized my...
Luckily helicopters are welcomed in my AOR. In fact, the authorities and land owners like to go for a ride now and then. I was featured in the local digital newspaper very favorably. Generally,...

Just me but in my experience:
GoPro is a funky company with unreliable hardware and software. Stopped using them around the 7 release. Hope things have changed. By the way Adobe is a joke now...
A few more details, I can recall, from my experience:
1) Remove and replace with temporary spreaders:

2) Back in the flatbed truck or trailer into hangar:
53435
Any flatbed will work. I sold, removed and shipped (last year) the 2100As to Washington.
New happy owner!

The skis were shipped to Canada:

“Ground” is relative. Contrasts: From a micro watch battery terminal to a nuclear generator earth ground.
We all live with several different “Grounds” on a daily basis. Cars, iPADS, DC & AC....
I would see what the static run-up RPMs are (adjusted for density altitude), before any disassembly.
Then you detect changes with more accuracy.
Maybe there is still hope if the Army allows limited management of Dillingham and lowers the rent...
