Eurocopter Gazelle Helicopter in Hungary

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

The Eurocopter Gazelle is a light helicopter with strong military and utility heritage, bought in the civil market by specialists who understand that support path, component status, and exact configuration matter more than the attractive name. It is not a mainstream private helicopter like a Robinson or Bell 206. Compared with a Bell 206, the Gazelle is more specialized and support-sensitive; compared with modern light twins, it is a legacy platform with unique parts and maintenance questions.
