About the Bell BELL 222A
The Bell 222 (and re-engined Bell 230) is a 1980s light-to-medium twin-turbine — a sleek, retractable-gear helicopter most famous as the helicopter in the 1980s TV series Airwolf. Twin Lycoming LTS101 engines (later replaced by Rolls-Royce 250-C30 on the 230), retractable gear and a stand-up cabin made it the most modern civil twin of its era. Used for corporate, EMS and charter roles. The 230 was a re-engined upgrade; the later 430 (separate page) stretched the design.
Produced 1982–1999.
