Sales at Robinson Helicopter Company, once again, exceeded
expectations. In 2004, Robinson produced 690 new helicopters, a 63%
increase over the 422 helicopters produced in 2003. RHC shipped 234
R22s and 456 R44s, an all time high for the company, and has
manufactured over 3,780 R22s and 2,100 R44s to date.
The Skymaster Owners and Pilots Association 2005 meeting and
fly-in is scheduled for Key West between May 18 and 21. A great mix
of subjects, speakers and activities -- well beyond what's been
done in prior years -- is planned, covering exciting issues such as
travel destinations, maintenance, upgrades, and STCs.
Pilot Lands In Big Trouble After Dropping Flour On Friends
An Arizona man with access to an airplane and the ability to fly
it is in a whole lot of trouble this week, after he decided to play
a joke on some friends who were in a paintball gun competition in
the Tonto National Forest, according to authorities. Because of
that prank, the forest was evacuated in the midst of what rangers
thought might have been a chemical or biological attack.
