Airbus H135: Combine Safety and Maneuverability for a Smooth Ride

The Airbus H135, an update to the EC135 P2E name, is favored by members of law enforcement and emergency medical services companies because of its smooth ride and built-in safety features. However, these same features also make it an excellent choice for corporate transportation.

Our featured H135 has a luxurious interior that includes seven Prada leather seats and a refreshment galley. Each seat is also equipped with a Bose XX series headset. 

Safety and maneuverability

Safety features on the H135, according to Airbus, include an “energy-absorbing fuselage and seats, along with crash-resistant fuel cells.” In addition, the Fenestron tail rotor and bearingless main rotor contribute to unsurpassed maneuverability and faster cruising speeds.

According to the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association, one of the main considerations when buying used aircraft is engine hours — and this Airbus H135 has a low 650 total hours. It also has no damage history and recently had an annual type inspection. The dual Pratt and Whitney PW206B2 engines allow for low vibration and, according to Airbus, the anti-resonance isolation system makes for a smooth flight.

State-of-the-art avionics

In the cockpit, avionics in our featured H135 include

• dual electronic attitude direction and electronic horizontal situation indicators,
• Garmin Helicopter Terrain Awareness and Warning System and Garmin Transponder,
• high-quality Garmin Global Navigation System displays, and
• a full glass cockpit.

All of these features come together to create a well-appointed flight experience that any executive can find attractive. The safety and maneuverability of the H135 makes it perfect for densely populated areas, while the state-of-the-art avionics and fast cruising speeds mean even flights in urban areas will be smooth and relaxing.
