About the Bell 47 G2 HELICOPTER
The Bell 47 is the iconic post-war piston helicopter — first certified in 1946, recognizable by its bubble canopy and exposed tail boom, and made famous by the M*A*S*H TV series. Variants run through the 47G-2, 47G-3B, 47G-4, 47G-5 and 47D, all powered by Lycoming or Franklin piston engines. The Bell 47 is the most affordable way into helicopter ownership and the classic vintage rotorcraft on the used market — though piston-engine maintenance, aging components and limited parts availability are key cost factors.
