PRAISES

Joey,
  Over the last 9 months of 2005 we have been dealing exclusively with George Sr. & Jr. of East Coast Helicopter
in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. During that time we have put over 400 hours on 202CH including a very extensive  and
complete transmission overhaul including the swash plate and fan gear. Having my own moving & storage business that includes over twenty pieces of equipment I am very aware of the cost of maintenance whether it be related to boats, trucks, or helicopters. Like anything else in the repair of equipment there are always some unpleasant surprises ,but if you keep the communications open all problems can generally be resolved.

In regards to East Coast Helicopter I have always felt you get what you pay for and in their case I would have to say they are the East Coast Guru's of the Bell 47 . We also heard very positive comments about East Coast from Jay Mundis and the chief helicopter guru himself Tommy Sullivan. All in all I would have no problem recommending anyone to East Coast Helicopter for problems or service relating to the Bell 47.

Sincerely yours,
Jack Kelly

Hello Joey,

I have been in business for many years dealing with thousands of customers and untold numbers of suppliers. Due to my extensive experience I truly believe I have seen it all but, in a recent purchase of parts for my Bell 47G2 from Bob Harness of Texas Helogistics, service has reached a new high. Bob and his family went far out of their way to see that I was fully satisfied with their product. Rarely have I seen a supplier react with this level of professionalism. The worldwide community of Bell 47 people certainly has its share of people looking for a chance to take advantage of your need for parts and we all hear lots of bad press about them. But how about some good press for people like the Harness family? In the future, when I need parts for my Bell 47, I will certainly call Bob first and I sincerely hope that others do likewise. Thanks, Bob, for outstanding service!
