The Eurocopter Group was formed in 1992 through the merger of the helicopter divisions of Aérospatiale and Daimler-Benz Aerospace AG (DASA). 430 was one of their best ever designs. The last one was delivered in 2008 and the productions was there by stopped to give way to the 429. A 138 fleet still serves in many areas around the globe.
@wtrdogg20 I like the EC130 too. Eurocopter refer to it as their,'Alouette III successor! I would have thought the EC120 would have been closer to that accolade:-)
@MegaErn1 "Airwolf" was a Bell 222. The 430 is a newer and larger design than the 222.

Eurocopters are the best choppers for commercial or civilian use. I am in love with the EC130.
