Dunno how much it is for that little whirlybird of theirs, but at my old station the pilot of our chopper told us it was a grand just to start the engines. An average flight was easily over $5k.

I also wonder if their 'pilot' is an actual pilot, as most other crew have no qualifications, especially Paul Watson who calls himself 'Captain' yet he isn't a captain..

Yeah, but flying helicopters is hard. Takes actual instruction. Dunno if his license is current, but he was taught at some point how to fly.
