Hi Widgeon,

I did a search through the AS350 production list, looking only at the two prototypes first five production aircraft (I haven't got time to search further):

Prototypes:
001 F-WVKH / F-BVKH - AS350 (prototype) - converted to AS350C AStar - no longer registered, current status not recorded
002 F-WVKI / F-BVKI - AS350 (2nd proto) - converted to AS350B - no longer registered, current status not recorded

I wonder what happened to the above prototypes - does anyone know?

Production aircraft:
1001 F-WVKJ/F-BVKJ, F-WZAG, F-BZAG - AS350 (1st production aircraft) -written-off.
1002 F-WZAH / F-BZAH, F-ODIY AS350C AStar - written-off.

1003 F-WZAL / F-BZAL, F-GBBQ, F-ZBEA - OLDEST STILL FLYING:
