Great flying machines and great video go very well together, and that's what you'll see right here (if you're the impatient type, skip the first 20 seconds) - Eurocopter recently unveiled the EC130 T2, a significant update to their popular EC130 helicopter. With a capacity of 1 pilot and up to 7 passengers in the wide cabin, a horsepower upgrade to 952 shp, and extremely quiet operation, the EC130 T2 is perfectly suited to aerial tour operators. That large cabin is also excellent for air ambulance work as well.
Maverick Helicopters has ordered 50 of the EC130 T2, and Eurocopter expects to begin deliveries to customers of the updated helicopter later in 2012. Based on both the look and the performance shown in the video, this is one hot whirlybird!

"That large cabin is also excellent for air ambulance work as well."
A helicopter suited for air ambulance work is a very reliable and durable helicopter indeed.
