Buying a Used Eurocopter H125

Buying a Eurocopter H125 centres on its turbine engine(s) — time to overhaul, hot-section history and any engine maintenance program — alongside airframe hours and cycles.

What to check before buying

  • Turbine engine status — hot-section and overhaul time, trend monitoring and whether the engine is on a maintenance program.
  • Airframe hours & cycles — high-utilisation turboprops accumulate cycles quickly; cycles can matter more than hours.
  • Equipment — cargo pod, floats/amphibian gear, de-ice and avionics all affect value.
  • Corrosion & logbooks — continuous records and a corrosion inspection, especially on float or marine-operated aircraft.
  • Pre-buy inspection — commission an independent pre-buy by a type-experienced shop.

Frequently Asked Questions — Eurocopter H125

What makes the Airbus H125 so popular for commercial helicopter operations?
The H125 (formerly AS350 B3e) is the worlds best-selling single-engine turbine helicopter with over 5,000 delivered. Its Arriel 2D engine delivers exceptional hot-and-high performance (it set a landing record on Mount Everest). The simple, robust design keeps maintenance costs low even in harsh environments. It seats 6, cruises at 130 kts, and excels in EMS, tours, utility, and law enforcement.
What does it cost to operate an Airbus H125 per year?
Annual budget is approximately 20K-30K depending on hours flown. At 300 hours/year: fuel runs 20K (2 GPH Jet-A), maintenance and reserves add 00K-00K, fixed costs (hangar, insurance, pilot) total 00K-40K. Variable cost per hour is roughly 60-,400. The Arriel 2D engine overhaul interval is 3,500 hours — one of the longest in its class.
How does the Airbus H125 compare to the Bell 407?
Both are single-engine turbine helicopters seating 6-7. The H125 has better hot-and-high performance and a larger external load capacity (1,200 kg vs 1,100 kg). The Bell 407 has a faster cruise (140 kts vs 130 kts) and a wider cabin. Operating costs are similar (,400-,400/hr). The H125 dominates in mountain operations and utility; the 407 is preferred for EMS and corporate transport.
