Hi Roland,
what=B4s a minimum altitude which make sense when
overflying The Alps?
We feel comfortable to the FL 80 and have tested
our poor non-turbo to the FL 170 (awful). She was
still bravely climbing 100 ft/minute but I was
finished.
It is well flyable say to the FL 100-120 but I
hate it is not so stable platform there any more.

OK, Roland, maybe no membership for us in the High
Alt Club (HAC) but how is your membership in Mile
High Club (MHC) ? I have to say we confirmed our
old but trusty membership couple of times in the
back cabin in our very privat AN-2 during the
summers 2012 and 2013. Ask me nice maybe we can
rent it for you but you have to find your company
by yourself, because my wife will be sitting in
the cockpit with me then (it is mandatory today to
have a two people crew during AN-2 operations).
Can you Roland handle this ?

You are right - I managed to keep it (R44) in
control say 10 to 20 seconds until it started to
oscillate wildly. Schweitzer three seater was a
lot easier even to me, but Rotorway Exec is a real
nightmare - like sitting on the hard boiled egg -
max 3 seconds and upsidedown it went. EC-135 is
lovely but it=B4s pure and full anhuman computer
stabilized.
Marke sends you warm wishes - me too!
See you...

Sorry Raimo, no membership in the high altitude
club for non turbos ;-)
Congrats to Marke for her superb R 44 handling
skills - what I have heard is, that the R 44
handling is not too easy.
Best wishes
