Get to the choppa!

That's awesome. I'm a big fan of Uber, and I often find myself wishing the ride was an AS350 instead of a Toyota Prius.

$150 for a chopper ride from Salt Lake to Park City and an SUV on each end is actually a pretty good deal I think...

$200 daytime and $300 nighttime is what I read locally. They have been hit with a cease and desist order so they aren't supposed to be operating anymore. They didn't work out the private landing area and the noise with the locals and city very well. At least that's what the media is saying.

One of them was manuvering around Provo Canyon by Heber (36U) and Sundance ski resort yesterday as I flew through that area. Plenty of position reports and good communication. I have no beef with them, they'll move on soon enough. If they were landing in my backyard I might feel differently.
