Detailed Description

For sale is a stunning 2013 Enstrom 280FX Shark with only 33 hours total time since new on both airframe and engine — about as close as it gets to a new helicopter without the new-build price or wait! Previously a display helicopter for Enstrom, this ship has no damage history, complete records since new, a recent annual (April 2026), plus a fresh Airwolf TT strap conversion and fresh strut overhaul already done.

Powered by a Lycoming HIO-360-F1AD with just 33 hours since new and backed by a solid Garmin avionics suite with ADS-B Out. The 280FX Shark has always been a favorite for its bubble-canopy visibility and nimble, fun-to-fly handling, all while staying refreshingly affordable to own and operate.
