I love flying around my country via helicopters because of the so many things beautiful things I see at a bird's-eye view. Photography is one of my hobbies that I get to enjoy as I go along with the captain, the executives of Airgurus, friends and clients anywhere in the Philippines.
I started taking aerial shots of beautiful places all over the country last January as we, at Airgurus, covered the IronMan Challenge 2011. There is just one too many. Everything actually is beautiful from above and last weekend, I once again had a chance to enjoy aerial photography.
Thanks to my childhood best friend, Capt. Harry Lero of Airgurus Ltd. Co. for making me appreciate and love my country more each time!

Versatility... Reliabilty... Power and Value... The Bell 206L3 LongRanger is the captain of Airgurus' fleet of helicopters.
Whether the mission is corporate or VIP transportation, EMS, offshore oil and gas rig support, aerial photography, TV / Film Works, sling load operations, and many more, it has what it takes to accomplish it. The powerful and reliable 650-horsepower Rolls-Royce engine flies higher and farther. For superiority safety, it has a high-inertial two-bladed rotor system while the patented suspension system delivers an incredibly smooth ride. It can hold up to seven passengers, very comfortably and the club-passenger seating allows for face-to-face conversations.
The 206L LongRanger is a stretched variant with seating for seven (the LongRanger, stretched a total of 30 inches (760 mm), adds two rear-facing seats in between the front and rear seats). Since their first delivery in 1975, Bell has produced more than 1,700 Ls across all variant types. In 1981 a military version was released, the 206L "TexasRanger". The original 206L utilized an Allison 250-C20B engine, and a series of model upgrades replaced this engine with more powerful versions; the 206L-1 used a 250-C28 and the 206L-3 and 206L-4 used the 250-C30P with 490 shaft horsepower.
In 2007, Bell announced an upgrade program for the 206L-1 and 206L-3 which is designed to modify the aircraft to the 206L-4 configuration; modified aircraft are designated 206L-1+ and 206L-3+. Modifications include strengthened airframe structural components (including a new tailboom), improved transmission, upgraded engine for the L-1, all of which result in a max gross weight increase of 300 pounds and increased performance.
The Bell 206L3 is without a doubt, the best choice for helicopter charter and air ambulance services in the Philippines with Airgurus Ltd. Co.
