Re: WANTED: AS350 PVT Hire
Sounds great. However why bother with all the approvals just for a week. Why not sit there with the family and enjoy the view!. I’m sure the “safety pilot“ will throw the duals in if he wants to fly, then he can jump back on the G650 when he’s done.

Twistgrip,
Fair assumptions - but wide of the mark by a long way.
There hasn't been a 355F1 in FP for a long time.

Maybe speak to HeliWest. They have a few Squirrels (with air conditioning) floating around the Pilbara.
A few of their drivers up there are Instructors and pretty familiar with the area. You could hire the aircraft for the week, put the duals in and call it an instructional flight? Saves all the headaches associated with COV's.

I wish I had a catchy saying like everyone else...
