417 At Hai

Who will want a 407 when you can get the 417...has 400 lbs more internal gross weight :shock: :up: and selling for 2.11 mill

Still a Longranger...albeit faster, stronger, a little bigger, still a Longranger. You can keep it. Now a Koala..there is a helicopter!

The overpriced 417's will stuggle with the HS900 (LTS101) so the original and proven 407 with the C47 will increase in value.

Just think how many they would have sold if they redesigned a new helicopter and gave the customers everything they wanted...more payload, bigger cockpit, better engine, more cargo space, removable seats. I bet the number would be 5x's higher!

119 has less room in the front than the 407...infact you would be hard pressed to wear a helmet in one...was sitting in one the other day...no room up front and no headroom in the rear at all....you better not be 6 feet tall...you wont fit :shock:

Plinko,

To answer you last comment, Bell would have had to have built the Astar to get all of those options and like Eurocoter they would have sold tons of them. :up:
