The Bell 430 is essentially a 222 fitted with the 680 4-bladed main rotor.  I hope to get to fly in one of these soon, but from what I have heard from pilots, this is one of the smoothest riding helicopters out there.  Photos are form Bell's archives.

Hiser has a 222 bought from SBSD before he sold it to the japs for 'golf cart' duties and a 206 for caddy duties.

Is smooth comfy and we took it for lunch one last time...
