Gas prices spike. Time for a Turtle helicopter fly by—because, they can.
I asked Chat GPT how much to operate this helicopter per hour.
A helicopter like that is roughly:
Fuel burn: ~27–35 gallons/hour
Fuel alone: roughly $250–$350/hr right now depending on Jet-A pricing
Real operating cost: often $1,000–$2,000+ per flight hour once maintenance reserves, overhaul, insurance, pilot, inspections, hangar, etc. are included.
Also I’d punch myself if I lived in this building with their constant screaming/screeching, filming, kids running around everywhere, helicopter fly by’s and zero respect for others.
