The 505 is AUD$1.3 million (apologies, not $1.5...lost in FX translation). Which is USD$1.07 (I have the contract in front of me), plus FX, + 3% for 3 years (min) until delivery.
I have actual photos of the 505 cargo hold, but need to load them to photo bucket (or such) to get them on here. It may calculate to be the same as a 66, but it is a completely different shape...very long and thin, I doubt it will be that useful and sure doesn't look anywhere near the 66. I guessed 1/3 the size, because that's what it looks like.
On the dedicated thread, there is a lot of comment on the 505, which may be of interest. As for the actual thread questions "MAUW" who knows ? Not even Bell at this stage.

PS _ Nigel, for a bloke who makes a lot of sense with your 109 comments (I have flown the type), you drop the ball when disrespecting Robbies ! 44 and 66 are good things to fly. (No idea about 22, never flown).
