Officials at Bell Helicopter, Fort Worth, Texas, a Textron Inc. company, have announced the delivery of the first Bell 407GX to be operated in Poland at the Konstancin airfield near Warsaw. This is the first of two Bell 407GXs to be delivered in Poland this month.
"We are very pleased that interest in Bell Helicopter aircraft continues to grow in Poland. The Bell 407 is flown by customers across a variety of segments, from police and border patrol to air medical and corporate transport. Now, the Bell 407GX is gaining momentum in Poland and all over the world as the most advanced light single engine helicopter on the market," says Patrick Moulay, managing director for Bell Helicopter in Europe.
JB Investments Ltd., Bell Helicopter's independent representative in Poland, delivered the Bell 407GX last Tuesday. To date, Bell Helicopter has delivered more than 1,100 Bell 407s across the globe, including nearly 100 Bell 407GXs.
The 407GX accommodates six passengers and features the Garmin G1000H flight deck, providing critical flight information at a glance for greater situational awareness and increased safety. The flight deck's high resolution LCD screens host primary flight and multi-function display information, including Helicopter Terrain Avoidance Warning System, Helicopter Synthetic Vision Technology, traffic information systems, and more.
