  • Well spotted! But it is in fact a 1981 500D model with an after market 'Hawk' conversion, making it appear to be a 500E model, we've been told by the Sheriff's Office.

    Keep in mind that some D models have had the "E" nose retrofitted..

  • it's an 500E pointed nose 500D has a rounded nose.

  • Looks a lot like an 'E" model not a "D" model. Can't tel if the forward canopy has been modified.

  • nice painted heli

  • wow thats great footage !!!
