Mission and configuration are the first helicopter facts

A mission card and a configuration sketch are the first objects a helicopter buyer puts on the desk. Hours on the airframe come third, taken from the firm's file and not from a guess. A tour operator and a utility buyer are not the same lead, so the form asks which mission before it asks for a phone number. The page does not call the helicopter airworthy.

Mission and configuration before the phone

Mission is the work the helicopter is being asked about: tour, utility, training, or whatever category the firm actually handles. Configuration is the seating, the gear, and the role equipment the firm is prepared to describe. Both sit above the phone number. A tour operator who wanted a window seat and a utility buyer who wanted external gear are not helped by one vague paragraph.

The form asks mission, then configuration, then whether the visitor is buying or selling. helicopters@ takes a question that names no listing yet. listings@ takes an owner correction. buyers@ takes a person who already knows which rotorcraft they mean. The heading says helicopter so a ship buyer does not use this desk by mistake.

Hours copied from the helicopter file

Hours are the airframe figure and, when the firm supplies them, the engine figures. They are copied, not estimated from the year painted on the tail. If the file has no hours, the page says the hours were not provided. A round number we liked the look of is not a substitute. The helicopter buyer is comparing records, and a made-up meter wastes that comparison.

Configuration changes that affect how hours should be read, such as a role kit added or removed, are described only in the firm's words. We do not explain which kit is legal. We do not say the helicopter is airworthy because the hours look low. Low hours are a fact. Airworthiness is a different subject, and it is not ours.

Tour leads and utility leads stay split

A tour lead usually cares about seats, doors, and the kind of flying the operator already does. A utility lead usually cares about mission gear and where the aircraft can be based for work. One testimonial-style paragraph about both is how the wrong person answers. The page gives each lead a sentence of its own and the same rule: no airworthiness claim under either heading.

The firm may decline a category. If it does not handle utility work, the page should say that in one line instead of letting the configuration list imply a yes. Motus will not add a mission the firm does not fly, and it will not sell the helicopter. The inquiry still goes to a person at the address printed for that lead.

Starter fits a helicopter desk whose first facts are mission and configuration, with helicopters@, listings@, and buyers@ written on the page.

Motus does not sell a vessel, an aircraft, or a machine, and does not certify that one is airworthy or seaworthy.

Questions

What should a helicopter inquiry state before a phone number?
Mission and configuration come first. Hours come from the firm's file, not from a guess. A tour operator and a utility buyer should be readable as different leads. The page does not call the helicopter airworthy.
Does a helicopter page claim the aircraft is airworthy?
No. Hours and configuration are facts when the firm supplies them. Airworthiness is not a sentence Motus writes. The firm may decline a mission it does not fly. We will not add that mission or sell the helicopter.
How are tour leads kept apart from utility leads?
Each gets its own sentence and its own path into helicopters@, listings@, or buyers@. A single vague paragraph is what mixes them. Configuration is described in the firm's words. We do not explain which kit is legal.
Where do helicopter hour corrections from an owner go?
Owner corrections go to listings@. A buyer comparing rotorcraft writes buyers@. Hours are copied from the file and left blank when the file has none. Motus does not estimate them from the year on the tail.
