Edwards/Bell is no different than Gulfstream service center, neither facilities complete the project on time.

here is the window install update as of today,. Monday this week I w=s told by Edwards we where on track for completion Wednesday evening and go i=to paint shop on Thursday this week. I need your direction, are we willing to pay two days of overtime charge for this weekend to complete Bell 430 Sunday night? $4,800.00 additional Edwards gave me an estimate of $11,130.00 to install both windshields=20 labor, and I was trying to keep to that figure, however, yesterday the=20 manager David Burch whom I've mention during the EFIS deal stated he wa= going request additional money for labor since its taking his mechanics longer th=n anticipated to complete this installation due to the fact we are installi=g heated bird resistant windshield on captains side, and only heated glass windshield on co-pilots side, David Burch stated its harder to shimm the=20 windows when two different types of windows are installed. The dual window change is by far the hardest task to accomplish on the Bell 430, plu= the "risk of cracking the window" on the first flight, Bell=would have to install another window at their cost, neither Edwards or ourselves =ant this to happen, so Edwards is taking their time and making sure the windows are installed properly. David Burch has assigned his three best mechanics for this install, this shop is quit small and employs only an estimated 11mechanics. Bell is not willing to pay the weekend overtime, I think its most important to get the helicopter=20 completed and ready to fly to St Thomas asap,. here is our two options:

## option #1

Pay additional $4,800 labor to complete the helicopter Sunday night if=20 Edwards can provide the mechanics to work this weekend overtime. I need one=full day for painting the window edge trim piece.

12th Sunday night window completion,

13th Monday paint shop,

14th Tuesday & Wednesday fly to St Thomas arrive by Wednesday night, a lot of tropical activity off the coast of Africa, l&#=9;d plan two days to get the 430 to St Thomas could be one day weather dependant, .=20 Wednesday or Thursday fly to Zorro to be in position for ABQ/Zorro to NY flight on Saturday the 18th.

## option #2

No additional money paid for labor to install windows, window install=20 completed on Tuesday 14th or Wednesday morning 15th, Paint shop Wednesday=20 night 15th, leave helicopter parked in West Palm Beach until after Gulfstream flight to New York. 18th Fly Gulfstream to NY 19th airline NY to Palm beach start heli flight to LSJ,. 20th arrive in St Thomas, 21st airline to NY in position for Gulfstream departure to LSJ,.

pls advise option 1 or 2 ?
Thank You,

## option #2 (cont.)

arm rest update:

The Toy store was completed with the arm rest by the time I arrived=20 at their shop on Wednesday, I was pleased with their modification to the arm rest, when arm rest is extended it rests on the lower seat bottom to firm the wobbling, the height was lowered to match closely the wood arm ledge height, the wood ledge is actually to low to=20 rest your arm, the fold down arm rest is now at a perfect and comfortable=20 height when you rest your arm on it. Their only seamstress is having=20 back surgery Friday and will be out of work for 3 weeks so any more mods this week will not be able to happen. If you like the arm rest for now= I'd like to research and price the feasibility of installing the Infinity SUV arm rest. I spoke to Clayton the shop manager and indicated I would investigate the car armrest and have him recover it to match the leat=er and figure out a way to install the arm rest during our next maintenance vi=it in the future. see photos of the mod's below:

OLD ARM REST as you viewed in palm beach:

New Arm rest below, note the arm rest sits on seat=20 bottom perfectly, and looks correct now, the old one did not sit properly a=d was to high,.
