Agusta 119

When HP considered expanding our fleet and services with a light helicopter, we carefully evaluated the common aircraft such as Bell 407's and Astar B3's and found that the Agusta AW119 was the best aircraft for our highly specialized missions.  We need to fly fast, fly far and have the power to fly at high altitudes with the largest payloads that a light helicopter can offer. 

 

The Agusta 119 is the fastest high-performance light helicopter on the market. This helicopter also has the best range with 5+ hours of fuel endurance, seats for 8 people and cruises at almost 175mph with the air conditioning on. While this helicopter is a bit more complex and expensive to operate than its competitors, we find the complexity alluring as the capabilities are unmatched. The proven and reliable PT6B-37A turbine engine produces over 1,000 horsepower and enables the helicopter to lift external loads weighing more than 2,700 pounds.
