Bell Textron has announced (5 November) a signed purchase agreement for the 100th Bell 505 in Europe to be delivered to private operator Adam Fawsitt. This sale is one of four Bell 505 purchase agreements signed at EUROPEAN ROTORS 2024, all for private operators based in the United Kingdom.
“We’re proud to reach our 100th sale of the Bell 505 in Europe and thrilled to celebrate this milestone here at EUROPEAN ROTORS,” said Robin Wendling, Bell Managing Director, Europe, Commercial Business. “This achievement serves as a testament to the regional demand for the aircraft’s technology, versatility and performance. The Bell 505 has been instrumental to Bell’s growth in Europe.”
“As an aircraft owner looking for a modern single-engine turbine aircraft, I selected the Bell 505 for its incredible performance, advanced avionics, modern technology and great looks. I’ve enjoyed working closely with the Bell team and their United Kingdom Independent Representative, HelixAv, to specify my perfect helicopter, and look forward to flying the 100th Bell 505 in Europe,” explained Adam Fawsitt.
