Thanks, but no thanks. I fly every week and I only fly commercially.

Some of the members of this board are used to flying low I guess.

I grew up fishing/camping in the backcountry of Idaho. Around the Ketchum/Sun Valley area. Were flown in a Bell Jet Ranger my grandfather owned... just thought it was normal. One day we were at a pristine lake and over the ridge came another BJR it was jet black w/ black tinted windows. It was JR Simplot, some of you may recognize the name if not a quick search will bring up info. Anyway they landed... my grandfather and him chated and fished... they said adios and took off. I was always envious of that chopper... ours was white with the yellow, orange and red stripe...

Flight is my passion... well... good luck with your search I know quite a few pilots... tough gig...awsome hobby though...

Depending upon the aircraft and client requirements, it would start at $55K.
Just FYI, there are only 75,000 commercial Helicopter Pilots (Approx.) in the US. For insurance reasons it helps if your pilot has His/Her ATP. Only 15,000 (Approx.) Helicopter Pilots have it and only 200 per year pursue that rating.

You need to be extra careful who you pick as your pilot, your life depends on it. Last year there was a younger female pilot in Delaware that killed herself and her very affluent client due to a bad weather decision. Your pilot is the boss in the aircraft... even if you own it.
