About the 505 Jet Ranger X

The Bell 505 Jet Ranger X is a single-engine rotorcraft developed in North America primarily for personal travel, sightseeing, law enforcement, and student training. Featuring a single pilot crew alongside passenger accommodation, this light helicopter utilizes a metal and composite airframe constructed with a flat floor and a dedicated luggage bay, powered by a single turboshaft engine paired with a glass avionics suite.

The aircraft was initially introduced at a major European airshow as a short light single concept before receiving its formal designation. Its maiden flight took place in November 2014, followed by regulatory validation from Canadian authorities in late 2016 and subsequent American certification. Production facilities were established in the United States before assembly operations shifted to Canada. Over the years, the type has achieved widespread sales and found deployment as a military trainer globally, alongside pioneering milestones such as operating on sustainable aviation fuel.

This page covers the Bell 505: the same aircraft under other designations.
