4-1 Passenger transport mission
The
EC130 B4
with its FENESTRON shrouded fan tail rotor is one of the most silent helicopters flying
nowadays. Its very low noise level is 7 dB under the limits defined by the Grand Canyon National Park rule.
The helicopter has been designed with the occupants in mind. Each passenger is comfortably seated on
individual and comfortable seats. The wide and unobstructed cabin with very high visibility offers the
passengers an excellent view for both the front and the rear passengers. The rear passengers' seats are
placed on a raised platform to provide this excellent view.
Using the technologies of the well-known
ECUREUIL
family, the
EC130 B4
has an exceptional high rate of
availability. All these elements make the
EC130 B4
therefore the benchmark for passenger transport and
tourism helicopters.
