Inside The $500,000 Robinson R44

Inside The $500,000 Robinson R44 Helicopter
This is the Robinson R44, a utilitarian and affordable four-place helicopter for the common man that’s in a class of its own.
The Robinson R44 takes the standard two-plus-two seating configuration of the personal airplane and gives it a vertical takeoff and landing capability. The result is a hugely popular four-seat single that just happens to have a rotary wing.
The base purchase price for a new Robinson R44 was $500,000 before options, but today prices range between $300,000 and $600,000, and the charter price is estimated at $1,000 to $1,500 per hour.
While the annual fixed cost for a Robinson R44 is roughly $20,000 to $40,000, the average hourly operating cost is estimated at $200 to $300.
Here is everything you need to know about the Robinson R44.
