Fifteen participants to the Meeting choose to spend a few days in Moscow before going to Saint Petersburg. Sergey was waiting for us at the airport and took us to the luxurious Grand Marriott Hotel.
The visits that had been organised to the Red Square and the Kremlin were a bit changed by the rehearsals for May 1 celebrations, but ultimately we managed to see the lot. We were taken by bus to the Monino Aviation Museum and then to the Bunkovo Heliport. It is from there that the 2 Robinson 66 turbine helicopters started and finished their RTW last year. There, we were received by Michael Farikh, his copilot and the crew of the other R66. After the traditional bread and salt welcome, we were shown a presentation of their fights to the North Pole and around the World. CarolAnn and Carol made a presentation of their 7 days RTW. After several helicopters flights, we enjoyed a BBQ. Aviamarket is a very important helicopter sales and maintenance organisation and one of the largest Robinson Helicopters agents.
