Description
Helix AV is pleased to offer this 2023 Bell 505, presented in striking Imperial Blue Pearl with a two-tone grey leather interior. With just 290 airframe hours, G-DBHI represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a low-hour, well-maintained Bell 505. DBHI benefits from an extensive factory equipment specification including a second baggage door, Garmin GFC 600H 2-Axis Autopilot, a second Garmin GTR 225B radio, Frahm equipment, a TR gearbox cover and more. The cabin features two-tone grey leather with grey carpeting, a black headliner, and matching grey leather cubby boxes. The aircraft is being sold due to an upgrade to a new Bell 505.
