Aircraft Equipment Options

 

The MD500 series of helicopters are widely regarded as the aircraft of choice for highly specialized operations. The compact dimensions as well as the five bladed rotor system make for a very stable and highly manoeuverable aircraft.

With over twenty years experience operating the MD500D helicopter, Oceanview Helicopters has a large supply of spare parts as well as a large amount of operations gear specifically designed for the 500D.
