Why consider this model?
How much space?
People and cabin dimensions share one scale. The cabin outline is illustrative. The layout is an example, not the seat map of the helicopter in your quote.
Room for your luggage
2.10 m³ of baggage space.
* Indicative estimate based on published baggage volume, for medium suitcases around 65 × 45 × 25 cm. Compartment shape, door openings, baggage weight and flight load can reduce the number. We confirm your luggage for the aircraft offered.
Skis, golf bags or extra luggage?
Include the number and dimensions of bulky items in your request. Long items need a separate check.
Helicopter specifications
Helicopter range is a planning reference and may be quoted without fuel reserves. Passenger weight, baggage, landing-site conditions and required reserves determine the usable route.
The model and its relatives
429
First delivered in 2009, the 429 answered demand for more cabin space than the 427. Executive interiors use that space for fewer, more widely spaced passenger seats.
Model historyWhere it began and how it evolved
Bell developed the 429 after the 427, putting greater emphasis on a spacious, easily accessible cabin. That space served both medical operators and private passengers, although their interiors were very different. The executive versions reduced seating density rather than changing the basic airframe. This explains the model’s combination of a practical transport background and a relatively generous private-transfer cabin.

Before you choose
Can I stand upright in the cabin?
The cabin is lower than 180 cm, so a person of that height cannot stand fully upright. The scaled illustration shows the difference. Maximum cabin height: 1.24 m.
Will my helicopter have this exact interior?
Not necessarily. These photographs and the layout illustrate the model. We check the actual interior, seats and equipment when preparing your proposal.
