Is that so? What does the paperwork say it is?

Well and Bell Long Ranger B 206L is certified on the Bell Jet ranger cert B206B, but it is a different aircraft 36 inches longer, different engine, main rotor blades, tail boom, tail rotor blades...etc. Just because the type cert for an ASG-29 says ASW-27-18, does not mean it is the same, there are substantial differences.
