PHI's Bell 427 - Figment of the Imagination

[Pac Rotors]

At Heli Expo last year saw the Bell 427 in PHI colours and the big handover to PHI. Yet according to people at PHI they never got the aircraft and its never been to work for PHI. Any ideas on whether it was just a Bell PR job or what.

I checked on landings last week , there are about 22 427's either registered to Bell or with reserved registrations. It does have TC doesn't it ?. I heard a rumour from a former Bell employee of a major C of G problem.

Any deliveries to the States, including PHI's, have been in limbo waiting for the development and approval of the FAA Mods.
