Does any one know were a civilian can buy a used sikorsky Sea King?

Answer 1

Since they are usually deployed for military purposes, you will hardly find some 2nd handies here. Your best shot is to try an off-shore helicopter operator or maybe an oil company with off-shore operations on oil platforms.

Make sure that "if" you buy one from a company that is not a holder of an Air Operator Certificate (every company offering commercial air transport must have one, but companies that use them for private transport are exempted from it), issued by their governments aviation authorities, that it comes with a decent maintained technical log book, and let it have checked firmly first before buying it since private companies might save money on the maintenance if they already intend selling it.

Most important, make sure you have the proper type rating qualification to fly one, and check whether or not this type of helicopter may be owned by private persons in your country. Also make sure you can have maintenance done by a certified company.

Sikorsky's R Us. Side street off of Red Square. No credit, bad credit, undeveloped nation? No problem. We finance everyone!
