Amazing that Bell cannot even design yet another upgrade to the 206.
I wonder why Eurocopter with freash clean sheet designs is the leading
supplier of helicopters? Just cannot figure that out.

Let's see, Long ranger, 407, 427, 427i (I guess that one did not work
either) and now the 429.

Maybe Bell should hire European engineers and managers.


The 206 was designed before Larry Bell died wasn't it?
