The aircraft will be equipped with a Quiet Cruise™ kit for reduced noise levels in cruise flight.

The 407GX Quiet Cruise kit communicates with the engine’s FADEC to adjust the rotor speed, significantly decreasing external noise in cruise flight, resulting in a reduction of decibels that will reach the community below.
