Finally...pre-approved for an aircraft loan. There was a day in my life when I didn't struggle with getting a loan. I've paid cash for three different helicopters back in the day. But those days are long gone. So the bank approves $100k for a decent 231 I submitted. But after looking at my needs, I'm not really sure I 'need' a 231. Sure, the turbo would be nice for density altitude days. I could carry more people with more fuel. But usually it will either be me alone, or my wife and I with our dog. I can easily do with a nice E, F, or J. And I can save some money for upgrades. Less maintenance too. When I was partial owner on an F before, we had no problem in the summer in Denver. Sure, a nice K would be better. I live in the Denver Metro Area. 90% off my flying will be commuting to eastern NM / West Texas on a weekly basis where I work for a living...flying an EMS helicopter. It will save me countless hours driving (averages around 10 hours each way). I thought about joint a group/fractional bird, but with me using the aircraft for 9 days at a time, this won't work in most circles. So, let the searching begin for a nice E, F, or J!
