There use to be some place over by Trades Village that would do it. Call the Arlington Municipal Airport.

Closest place I know of is in Addison, and they've been around a long time.

Shouldn't be anymore than about $150/hour split between whoever is in the Helicopter really......are you considering THAT expensive?

all relative I guess. IF your gonna be in an S-76 it would be ungodly expensive.

But,if your in an AS 350 or EC135 or similar "small" 4 place helicopter it wouldn't be THAT bad.....

Just depends on helicopter and FBO!

yes it is all relative. our 206B goes for $600-700 an hour vs our 412EP which is $4400 per Hr.
