Eurocopter AS350B3 A-Star

The A-star B3 is arguably the most powerful, fastest, and versatile medium single helicopter in the world. Paradigm Helicopters chose the A-star B3 to be able to surpass our competitor's Bell 407 capability. You will enjoy cruise airspeeds in excess of 150 MPH, while being able to carry up to 5 passengers in addition to the pilot. The B3 will out perform all aspects of the Bell 407 and will do it in a much safer platform. The B3 boasts Dual independent hydraulic systems and dual electronic fuel control computers. This level of safety and redundancy was only previously found in much larger multi-engine helicopters.

Paradigm's B3 has a large comfortable AIR CONDITIONED cabin laid out in an open cockpit design. There is no "back seat", so all passengers have unprecedented visibility. Our aircraft have unlimited peripheral power supply access for all your carry on electronic needs. We have Bluetooth headset capability, which affords our clients to utilize their own cell phones comfortably through our aircraft's headset system.

Eurocopter EC120B Colibri

The EC120B Colibri, also known as the "Hummingbird" is one of the worlds quietest and most advanced helicopters ever built. Its performance, versatility, comfort and low noise profile makes this helicopter the choice of discerning entities all over the world. This aircraft brings together the latest technologies in a lightweight, single-engine platform that comfortably seats the pilot and four passengers in a wide, unobstructed cabin. In addition to an exceptionally low vibration level, passengers appreciate the EC120's ample leg room and air conditioned environment. Adding to the helicopter's functionality is a panoramic view through its expansive glass windscreen and side windows, providing unmatched visibility for all those aboard. The EC120 B is the first single-engine helicopter to meet the requirements of the new FAR 27 safety regulations (structurally energy attenuating fuel system, pilot and passenger seats).

With its spacious cabin, unparalleled visibility and large compartment for baggage or cargo, the EC 120 B is perfectly suited for transporting passengers anywhere. Its air-conditioned system, low vibration and noise level assure passenger comfort even on long rides.

The New generation of Fenestron® tail rotor is absolutely state of the art. It provides low noise level, high ground clearance, and unprecedented safety both on the ground and in flight.

Enstrom 480B

The Enstrom 480 was developed to be an equally competent, light turbine helicopter to a market historically dominated by the Bell 206B Jet Ranger and MD500. A thorough development program, which included three test aircraft and over 1500 hours of flight verification, led to FAA certification to FAR 27 standards in 1994. FAR 27 is a more current and rigorous certification basis than that achieved by the competitors in this class.

The 480B series has now been certified in 16 countries and has already been operated in 18 countries. With over 90 aircraft in the field now, the 480B is proving to be a popular choice for a wide range of applications, including personal transport, flight instruction, law enforcement, power line patrol, executive transport (charter), electronic news gathering, pipeline patrol, aerial photography, sightseeing, and cargo/passenger delivery.
