Helio Courier H295 Ski's

I just bought an H295. I have Zero time on skis and would like to talk to anyone with experience flying Helio's on Ski's and where to find a set? All comments appreciated!

Sierraman,
Congrats on the newly aquired Helio!! I have looked at then several times and wished I could own one. I even looked at a Wilga a couple of days ago....so ugly its cool. But the fuel burn SUCKS in that ol'radial.

ww,
I agree on the so ugly it's cool comment, I would probably be inclined to go the flat 6 route though, check out this cool example in Flagstaff:

Sierraman,

Get in touch with Bob Bursiel, owner of Wright Air Service, in Fairbanks, AK. Call information, and they can get you a number for the company. Bob has a LOT of time in Helios, including a lot of ski experience. He can give you good information on them.
