Robinson’s 700th R66 turbine helicopter rolled off the production line on December 18, five years after the five-place helicopter received FAA certification. S/N 700 is an R66 Turbine Marine, which is an R66 equipped with pop-out floats. The helicopter will be delivered to Robinson dealer Air Technology Belgium. This will be the first Turbine Marine delivered to Europe since EASA approved the float option in October and one of more than 50R66s sold to Europe.
Along with the float option, Robinson also has recently added options for the Garmin G500H flight display and Genesys HeliSAS autopilot. The company is developing further options for an auxiliary fuel tank and cargo hook. Those options are expected to become available for R66 helicopters in 2016.
Air Technology is among 72 R66 dealers worldwide. Robinson has approved a total of 120 R66 service centers.
