    I say we all chip in and bid on it! :p

    It was my idea though, so I get the first ride!
    People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.

    Wouldn't be much of a ride unfortunately. It doesn't fly. It would still be fun to own though. Good find.
    My goal in life is to earn enough money to enjoy the lifestyle that my wife and kids do.

    I think we found our new corporate transportation. I know a helicopter mechanic that could get it flight ready...

    Someone photoshop a TBCS logo on that bad boy for the front page...

    Ack, that would be a travesty. Sure put the TBCS logo somewhere inside, but defacing the beauty of the original paint job = bad idea imo.

    Yeah, I could see that. It does look good.

    How about this;

    We use the led fan technology on the rotors and only when the thing is in the air could you see the logo from underneath (switch controllable of course for stealth mode).

    I am actually surprised at the amount of bids...

    You shouldn't put anything on the blades either, they are perfectly balanced, and who knows what would happen if they happen to become unbalanced...

    That's not hard. An LED array with the same number of LED's and same lengths of wires, etc on each rotor will not upset the balance. It will increase rotational inertia (longer time to take off, rotors slow down slower) but not a whole lot.

    Couldn't it interfere with the airflow over each blade though?
