Help sourcing timed out R44 Astros?
Do you have one, or know of anyone that has one sitting around collecting dust?
If so I would like to purchase it!
They don't need to fly, just need to look complete from the outside. They will be used as static displays at an exhibition.
I have been trying to source them from controller/barnstormers and service centers to no avail. Any tips on where else to look?

<t>Most are already at schools or made into beer cans. It would seem that people are still flogging them and a quick look around didn't come up with any cheap options. You could try calling around to the repair shops that also dismantle like aero-smith out west or skyline helicopter technologies in Ontario or one of a dozen other across Canada. Maybe the u.s.?

Try Ops Mobile in Whitecourt Alberta.
People should not have to fear both the government and the criminal. It should be that the criminal fears both the people and the government.

Thanks for the tips guys. I tried reaching out to the guys over at Ops Mobile, and although they do have a couple timed out Astros, they told me they're not currently for sale.
