About the BELL 206B

The Bell 206B, also known as the JetRanger, is a general aviation aircraft designed and manufactured by Bell Helicopter. This model is a part of the 206 series and has a remarkable history in both civil and military aviation. The development of the Bell 206 began in the early 1960s, with the goal of creating a versatile, reliable, and efficient helicopter that could meet a variety of needs, from corporate transportation to emergency medical services, and could also be adapted for military use.

The Bell 206B was introduced as the Bell 206A in 1967 after a redesign of the original prototype, which was initially rejected by the United States Army. Its sleek design, combined with advanced features for the time, contributed to its immediate success in the civilian market. The

Damage Level
Substantial
Description
(-23) DURING TAKE-OFF THE PILOT PEDAL-TURNED DOWNWIND, AND THE AIRCRAFT BEGAN TO LOSE ALTITUDE. HE ADDED POWER, THE AIRCRAFT DIPPED FORWARD AND THE ROTOR STRUCK THE GROUND CAUSING THE AIRCRAFT TO ROLL OVER ON ITS RIGHT SIDE.

July 31, 2007 - Columbia, Missouri

Damage Level
Substantial
Description
The helicopter was substantially damaged when it impacted terrain during takeoff. The pilot stated that the helicopter was to be loaded with one passenger in the left seat and a 167 lb part behind the pilot. The part was loaded onto the helicopter and the pilot was then informed that the passenger would not be riding in the helicopter. Because of a "time deadline," the pilot decided to fly the helicopter from the left seat instead of the right in order to "have a good lateral C.G." During takeoff, the pilot reported that the helicopter started "sinking toward the ground" and that he was "over controlling the cyclic." The helicopter's skids came in contact with tall grass and tipped "very far forward." The pilot tried to level the helicopter with the cyclic, the tail "fell rapidly," and the helicopter subsequently impacted terrain and rolled over on its right side. The pilot stated in his accident report that the accident could have been prevented had he taken the time to get help to move the load to the co-pilot's side. He reported that it would have solved his lateral C.G. problem and he would be flying the helicopter from his normal position.
