Main description

The new-generation EC130 B4 is a light, single-engine helicopter with all the latest technology and a roomy, modular cabin that can seat 1 pilot plus 7 passengers.
Its Fenestron® tail rotor and automatic rotor speed control result in a significantly reduced operating noise level. Reliable power is provided by the Turbomeca Arriel 2 turbine engine including a dual-channel FADEC (Full Authority Digital Engine Control) with a third independant back-up channel. Integrated VFR equipment coupled with a Global Positioning System (GPS) is fitted as standard for day and night missions. All EC130 B4 systems are very easy to maintain.
