Description
Detailed Description SOLD - This 2021 Bell 505 Jet Ranger X offers an excellent opportunity to acquire a clean, low-time example of Bell’s modern light turbine platform. With only 352 hours total time since new, N459PT remains a very low-time example with substantial service life ahead. The aircraft features the Garmin G1000H integrated glass cockpit, delivering an intuitive and highly capable avionics suite well suited for both private and commercial operations. A second VHF communication radio (Garmin GTR 225B) adds operational flexibility, while electronic standby instrumentation provides an additional layer of redundancy. Equipped with the Operator Accessory Package, this aircraft includes practical enhancements such as sliding pilot and co-pilot windows, rotor brake, cargo hook provisions, and automatic pilot and co-pilot door openers. Finished in a deep red exterior with black interior seating, N459PT presents a clean, professional appearance with a practical and durable cabin. The aircraft’s low total time and dependable configuration make it an attractive option for both private and commercial operators. Available for immediate showing.
