Are Bell making a comeback at last?
The 407 is a big success for Bell. The 427 isn't so far.
Orders for the 407 are 35 percent up over last year. Life Flight Eagle just ordered two to replace the BK117 saying it's better technology at lower cost.
They reckon to deliver more than 30 412s by the end of the year, the best number since 1998.
Bell say 23 percent of 2003 deliveries are to new customers and this years figures will be 30 percent up on 2002 by year-end.
I'd kinda like to see Bell back up there again.
Is it gonna happen?
