Eurocopter H145 Helicopter

Originally built by Eurocopter (Aerospatiale / MBB heritage), now Airbus Helicopters.

The Eurocopter H145 (EC145, derived from the BK117) is a light-twin helicopter prized for one of the largest, most versatile cabins in its class — a flat floor with rear clamshell doors that make it a favourite for EMS/HEMS, search-and-rescue, law enforcement and utility. Twin Safran Arriel engines provide redundancy; the modern H145 adds the Fenestron shrouded tail rotor and a five-bladed rotor on the latest variant. It competes with the AW169 and Bell 429 in the upper light-twin segment.

Buying a Used Eurocopter H145

Buying a Eurocopter H145 comes down to a focused pre-purchase checklist — here is what matters most on this model:

What to check before buying

  • Variant — EC145 (BK117 C2) vs H145 (BK117 D2/D3, Fenestron, five-blade); verify which (big capability/value gap).

  • Dynamic components — main/tail rotor, gearboxes, life-limited parts remaining.
  • Avionics — Helionix (H145 D) vs earlier; verify revision and ADS-B.
