Some helicopters sell on specifications alone. HB-ZYN also makes an immediate visual impression.

TREGOR AIR SERVICES is pleased to present this striking 2018 Bell 505 Jet Ranger X, serial number 65061, currently based in Switzerland.

Finished in a deep navy exterior scheme with flowing silver and white graphics, HB-ZYN combines contemporary styling with a highly practical equipment package.

The helicopter features a Garmin G1000H integrated glass cockpit, Safran Arrius 2R turbine engine, air conditioning, inlet barrier filter, wire-strike protection system and several additional operational upgrades.

Its five-seat cabin, panoramic visibility and modern flight deck make the Bell 505 equally attractive for private ownership, corporate transport, training or commercial operations.
