This is my attempt to chronicle the rebuild of my helicopter, a Brantly B2B. I'm not sure what to write here as this is my first attempt at a blog or anything similar.
I suppose I'll start off by telling a little bit about my helicopter. I purchased N2195U about two years ago. From what I gather I believe it may have been the last commercially working Brantly in the world. It was used in the early 90's to support surveyers in the Alaskan bush. It languished in the late 90's and early 00's when it was dissasembled prior to a 1200 hour inspection and trailered to Oklahoma for Harold Jenkins to conduct the inspections and reassemble it. I purchased it in it's diassembled condition and it was trailered up to me in Oregon. I only really began to work at reassembling it in the last six months. After looking at it's condition I decided to rebuild it from the skin up. This blog is my attempt to chronicle that journey.
