Be careful! The Bell 205 and the UH-1H were certified by the FAA and the Army, respectively. There charts are not the same. Last year I ran some numbers on the UH-1H based on the fuel costs at that time, and the result was $1079.43/hour. This figure did not include insurance and crew. The fuel was calculated at $5.50/hour.
Additionally, the 205 has been out of production for some time and there are few for sale.
