The next day we will do the paperwork while you are welcome to get a tour of the impressive Robinson factory. Flying back is dependant on weather and how many stops you want to make, but typically takes us 2- 3 days on average. We have done this flight many times so know of all the breathtaking views and great places to stop. The trip up is amazing. Over the west coast of California to the deserts inland. We fly out of Los Angeles, by the desserts of Las Vegas, by red rock and mountains in Utah, over plains, volcanoes and hills of Idaho, mountains and rivers of Montana….a beautiful flight.

Price Increase
Each year with the Jan 15th price increase, the lead times to extend out.If you get your order in before the annual Jan 15th price increase, you can reserve the previous years pricing. Eg. If you wanted to order a new R66, if the deposit is received prior to Jan 15th, you will have last years pricing. Keep in mind it takes a few days to transfer funds from different banks, so if this is something that interested you, we recommend getting your deposit transferred in December.
