Tell me how a clapped out, multi 1,000s of hours UH-1H airframe is magically turned into a zero time brand new 210. Then they take a 703 and with nothing more than a records check turn it into a -17.

Does this mean what the Restricted perators have maintained all along, the Huey and the 205 are the same aircraft?

Check the useful load of a UH-1H 703 and the 210. In the charts we look at the UH-1H still out lifts the 210 for a few million dollars less. Especially if you throw the composit blades on.

Will Bell EVER build another totally new helicopter??
