Agusta AW109 Trekker Helicopter

Originally built by Agusta / AgustaWestland, now part of Leonardo Helicopters.

The Agusta AW109 Trekker is the skid-equipped utility-focused AW109, distinct from the retractable-wheel executive bias of AW109 Power, Grand, and GrandNew aircraft. That fixed-skid identity changes the buyer intent: Trekker shoppers are usually thinking EMS, utility, public-service, or special-mission work rather than polished corporate transport. It keeps AW109 twin-engine performance, but value depends on mission equipment, skid/airframe condition, component life, and whether the configuration fits the intended operation.

Buying a Used Agusta AW109 Trekker

Buying a Agusta AW109 Trekker comes down to a focused pre-purchase checklist — here is what matters most on this model:

What to check before buying

The cost driver is mission equipment plus twin-helicopter component life. Engines, dynamic components, inspections, skid/airframe wear, EMS or utility equipment, avionics, corrosion, and Agusta support path should be priced before comparing it with wheel-equipped AW109 variants.

Frequently Asked Questions — Agusta AW109 Trekker

What makes the Leonardo AW109 Trekker different from the AW109 GrandNew?
The Trekker replaces retractable gear with fixed skids, uses Genesys avionics instead of the premium Honeywell suite, and has a simpler interior — saving nearly $3M off the GrandNew price. Performance and engines (twin PW207C with FADEC) are identical. For utility, law enforcement, and EMS missions, the Trekker offers AW109 speed and capability at a lower entry point.
What are the operating costs of the AW109 Trekker?
The Trekker falls between light singles (R66, H125) and larger twins (AW139) in operating cost. Twin-engine safety with 168-knot cruise makes it one of the fastest helicopters in its class. The 30-minute run-dry gearbox and crash-resistant fuel system add safety margins. FADEC-equipped engines reduce pilot workload and hot start risk.
Is the AW109 Trekker suitable for private owners?
The Trekker was designed for professional operators (law enforcement, EMS, corporate). For private owners, the twin-engine cost structure ($2,000+ per hour) is significantly higher than single-engine alternatives. However, if twin-engine safety is a priority and you fly 200+ hours annually, the Trekker offers Italian build quality and performance at a lower price than the GrandNew.
