HDM Tricycle Gear
In the aerly 1990s HDM bought about 10 Bell 412HPs and most were delivered on fixed wheel gear. Even the Pope Mobile (412 in Poland used by the Pope at one point) was on wheel gear.
From the guys that flew it, the fixed gear ground handling was good (read stable) as it did not have the tendancy of hydraulic gear to settle in tight turns causing the aircraft to lean out of the turn.
