Probably makes a little sense in some ways. You have to ask how stupid Bell thinks people are. This big deal about the "Huey II". The Bell 205B type certificate was issued years ago (FAA TCDS Model 205B 15 PCLH (Transport Helicopter Category B), Approved December 6, 1989) 10,500 lbs. Internal, 11,200 lbs. External.

It's probably easier to describe it as a single engined 212. Fuji in Japan actually developed the aircraft and it was only applicable to one aircraft. Serial Nos. Eligible 30066, 30166, 30188, and 30297. Serial Numbers 30351 and up are not eligible for FAA Certificate of Airworthiness. Serial 30351 is the original 205B and the others are rebuilt 205A1's as B's. In fact if you were observant there was a 205B for sale and sitting in the Hall at Heli - Expo in Vegas.

About time - Yawn!
