After some demo flights last week in the Swiss towns of Samedan and Sion, Bell’s 429 demonstrator flew via Baden-Baden in Germany en route to the UK.  Registered C-FTNB, the helicopter is now based at Blackbushe for a few weeks at Premiair Aviation’s hangar.  Today it visits Oxford, although we are not yet aware of which operator is the prospective customer there.

It is expected that the demo tour will include the upcoming Farnborough Air Show, which runs in the UK from 19-25 July
