Buyer checklist
What to check before you buy a AW139
- Engines. Two Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6C-67C: hours and cycles since new and since overhaul, the engine maintenance programme and the next major event, engine by engine.
- Weight version. Check whether the aircraft is a standard 6,400 kg version or an increased-weight variant, and what that means for your payload and certification.
- Dynamic components. Main gearbox, rotor head, blades and tail rotor: life-limited components and hours remaining. These parts set much of the value.
- Role equipment. Interior and kits installed (VIP, EMS, offshore, utility) and whether each kit is approved for the registry you plan to use.
- Records. Complete logbooks, airworthiness directives and service bulletins, damage history and the inspection status.
- Avionics status. Software standard, autopilot modes and mandates for your region, for example ADS-B Out.
- Registration and transition. Plan the certificate of airworthiness and the change of registry early. Compare 21 aircraft registries.
