Bell 430 – 2 Pilots, Twin-Engine – 6 Passengers

The Bell 430 is an American twin-engine light-medium helicopter built by Bell Helicopter. It is a stretched and more powerful development of the Bell 230, which, in turn, was based on the earlier Bell 222. Wikipedia

“For those who love flying, the ability of the helicopter to hover and move in any direction from the hover with complete control gives a thrill and fascination that is not found in any other form of powered flight.” ~Fay, John (1976), The Helicopter, History, Piloting and How it Flies, publisher: David & Charles, page 106.”
