ATP/CFI/CFII with 6000hrs total in Sikorsky, Eurocopter, Bell, MD etc. I have 1500 hours R22 and about 3 hours R44. I'm looking to fly some tours in an R44 close to home as a retirement gig. Any tips on how to built R44 time cheap or for free? I think I only need 25 hours R44 for the SFAR, but maybe 100 hours for insurance. Just looking something fun to do in retirement to get out of the house for a few hours.

(And I'm not asking about Robinson safety stats, so no need to go there. Learned about that flying the R22).
