  • Bell 505 Jet Ranger X
    PILOT REPORT Bell 505 Jet Ranger X 505 single improves on the 206’s legacy by Alexa Rexroth In mid-January, 20-degree temperatures in Texas coupled with substantial wind gusts and the threat of snow almost placed me directly in the right seat of a Bell 505 simulator instead of the real helicopter. But with conditions improving upon my arrival at Bell’s Fort Worth, Texas factory, it was announced, with great relief to me, that the flight in Bell’s 505 Jet Ranger X would take place as planned. www.ainonline.com/order-reprints Championed by Bell as the most advanced light single in the market, the 505 Jet Ranger X offers first-in-class features including a dual-channel Fadec and fully integrated Garmin G1000H flight deck. Designed to echo the storied career of the B206-series JetRanger while advancing its class’s legacy into the future, the 505 is suitable for utility, corporate, parapub- lic, and training mission profiles. Bell is working on utility options for the 505 and expects to certify a cargo hook later this year. With commercial deliveries continuing to climb along with letters of intent, the heli- copter is retaining its welcomed entrance into the market. © 2018 AIN Publications. All rights reserved.
