Detailed Description

The seller is proud to present N8330P, a beautiful 1989 MD 500E that has benefited from extensive recent investment and upgrades. This aircraft received fresh exterior paint in 2024, a refreshed black interior, and significant recent maintenance including a factory-overhauled main rotor hub in June 2024, along with fresh overhauls of the swashplate, main rotor gearbox, and tail rotor gearbox.

Most recently, the cockpit was completely modernized in May 2025 with a full Garmin glass avionics package featuring a G500H TXi, GTN 750Xi, GTX 345, GTR 205, GMA 350Hc, and an all-new instrument panel and console.

Beyond its recent improvements, N8330P is exceptionally well equipped for a variety of missions with a Soloy auxiliary fuel tank, dual external cargo hooks, wire strike protection, dual controls, and rapid-removal doors. Combining the proven performance and versatility of the MD 500E with extensive recent upgrades, a modern Garmin cockpit, and a highly capable equipment package, N8330P stands out as an exceptionally well-appointed 500E ready for a wide range of missions.
