Total Hours Summary

[Helidesigner]

Hi All,

Today is the 10th anniversary of the first flight in My Bearhawk 4 (N83ME). I have a very enjoyable 865+ hours on it. One of the best decisions I ever made was to build one. I am curious who has the high time aircraft out there. Reply to this post with your name, type, N number, and total hours and I will compile a list. I'll set a deadline of July 10th in time for a list to be compiled and published before Oshkosh.

I guess the owners of the oldest Bearhawk aircraft are unlikely to reply, just because most of those machines pre-date this forum! There are probably something like one or two hundred aircraft which predate bearhawkforums.com

In terms of people who are on here, I guess the highest time ones would have to include Mark's original machine, now Jared's, Pat Fagan's machine, sorry to those who I've forgotten.

Our tenth anniversary of first flight was exactly 6 months ago, exactly to the day. We're sitting at 1082.6 hours for ZK-NJB 4-place. I am happy with this, as I calculated that any less than 100 hours a year and I was better to rent!

The highest time bearhawk I know of is 3800 hours and counting. Several thousand hour birds out there. Great to see you all out there and flying
