You guys are trying to convince me. I see this company is only on Kauaii, not the Big Island. Oh well. Saved again.

Bob,  Aram,
    I looked at their site.  They are in business 10 years and have
had no accidents. The Hughes/MD 500's have one engine, but it's a turboshaft, so it's much more reliable than a piston engine. 
The small rotor diameter of the Hughes gives it a high rotational
speed, which means you have a lot of rotor energy to manage
descent in an autorotation.  A guy who had a Hughes 269A told
me "you have time to look for a good place to park," perhaps a
slight exageration.  They maintain to part 135, transport category.
That, along with being in day visual conditions, is about all you
can ask for to reduce risk.
Charlie.
