    Bell, October 23, 2021 - Fort Worth, TX Bell Textron Inc., a Textron Inc company, appointed Universal Helicopter (UHI) as its first Bell 505 Dealer in the United States with Authorized territory of Arizona and Utah.

    Bell’s dealership network creates a complete experience from aircraft purchasing to operator training for current and future Bell 505 customers.

    “Deepening our collaboration with Universal Helicopters (UHI) and naming them our first dealership in the United States is an important step as we continue to see growth for the Bell 505 around the world,” said Lane Evans, director, Bell 505 Sales.

    “While Universal Helicopters is based in the United States and our first Bell 505 dealership in country, their customer reach will play an important role in continuing interest for the Bell 505 and supporting the increasing need for future operator training.”

    Universal Helicopters is the only domestic Bell-Certified Training Facility that is equipped to offer customers the expertise needed to master the Bell 206 and gain their private pilot license and beyond using the Bell 505.

    Universal Helicopters President Dr. Gordon A Jiroux, hc, stated, “We are proud and honored to be the first Bell Dealer in the US for Bell’s State-of-the-Art 505.
