2012 R66

Description:

A sharp-looking, nicely equipped, and highly sought-after R66 helicopter is now available. This helicopter has some considerable advantages over purchasing a new one. When buying a new R66 with similar options, this helicopter would be over 1.3 M USD. New R66s currently have an 18-month lead time, which is why demand is so high. Save the luxury tax! When importing a new aircraft into Canada, it costs an additional 10% due to the luxury tax.

Equipment and Options:

Air Conditioning is a great option when flying in the summer or when considering resale value. The helicopter is Night VFR Capable. The upgraded touchscreen Garmin 650 provides a GPS, NAV, COM, and functional display. The L3 is a great upgrade. It is a transponder that is ADSB IN & OUT and will display traffic on the screen. We love the Flightstream 510 option which lets you connect your Garmin devices to your iPad to use Foreflight and other connected benefits. A new horizontal stabilizer, the new symmetrical style, will be added in August of 2024.

All maintenance has been performed to a commercial standard at an approved Robinson service center.

Overhaul and 12-year information:

R66s require an overhaul every 2000 hours or 12 years, whichever comes first. This helicopter will be completing a 12-year inspection in September. This will extend the items replaced for 12 additional years and 2000 hours. The remaining items that are not replaced in the 12-year inspection will have 778 hours until they need to be overhauled or replaced. Therefore an overhaul is due in 778 hours but will not have to replace the items that were done during the 12-year inspection making the cost of the overhaul considerably less.
