429 for Bond? ref Franborough

At Farnborough last week, had a chat with the Bell reps and found out something interesting that Peter Bond would be visiting the Bell chalet and that BAS had an interest in the 429. So there may be a possibility that BAS may go away from the traditional purchase of Eurocopter models??






And also the engineers said that the 429 easily beat the EC-135 in terms of performance especially at hot and higher altitudes
