206BIII Production Shutdown
So what do people think about Bell's decision to stop 206BIII production? ... It was announced along with shut down of the 427 and 430 (understandable given the success of the 429). And the 210 which was for a niche application and never really made it off the pad. But shutting down the 206BIII ??
Given it was announced about a month prior to HAI, I was expecting to find some reaction in this forum at least. But my serach revealed nothing. I thought B3s were pretty popular. According to the HAI show reports Bell delivered 28 of 'em last year.... so it's not like they don't sell.
Anyone buy the party line that the BIII and the 206L are both entry level?
