The H125 is the high-performance version of the single engine Ecureuil family, beating all other
helicopter in its category in terms of performance. It fulfils the FAR 27 regulation for VFR
1
operations by day & night .
2
It offers a Maximum Internal Gross Weight of 2,370 kg (5,225 lbs) and a Maximum All-Up Weight
of 2,800 kg (6,172 lbs) in external load transport configuration.
The H125 offers a interior design for increasing comfort in passenger transportation.
®
Should it be used for corporate or VIP missions, the aircraft is proposed in Stylence layout, which
upgrades travelling to a even higher confort level.
In order to enhance safety in operation, the H125 is equipped with improved energy absorbing
crew seats and encompasses dual hydraulics (as option). A cockpit camera helps the operator to
identify and address operational risks before they can lead to incidents and accidents.
A rupture resistant fuel tank is proposed as option, aiming at reducing the risk of post-crash fires.
Without underbelly external installation, this fuel tank can now be compliant with certification
requirement CS/FAR 27.952 “Fuel system crash resistance” through Airbus STC.
Equipped with Garmin G500H Glasscockpit and with last generation radio/ICS/GPS including
Garmin GTN650H, the H125 is now at the level of most modern aircraft and offers reduced pilot
workload and improved mission avionics features. For optimizing the Man-Machine Interface, the
®
H125 is basically fitted with the Vehicle & Engine Multifunction Display (VEMD ) that allows the
pilot to see all the main vehicle and engine parameters at one glance on a friendly dual LCD screen
screen.
Its Safran Helicopter Engines ARRIEL 2D engine is equipped with an upgraded triple engine
control: one dual channel FADEC (Full Authority Digital Engine Control) unit plus a third
independent & automatic back up channel. This modern engine is fitted with an Engine Data
Recorder (EDR) that manages cycle countings & usage tracking thus paving the way for more
predictive maintenance. Engine TBO and maintenance inspection intervals are extended.
Consequently operating costs will be reduced.

power in the process, mainly for hot and high conditions. It can be reconfigured very quickly and
easily from a mission to another. Operators worldwide considered the H125 to be the most flexible,
the best and the strongest aircraft among the lightweight helicopters ever produced. It can reach
th
where no lightweight helicopter can fly to, up to an altitude of 23,000 ft. On May 14 , 2005 a serial
®
AS350 B3 landed on Mount Everest (29,035 ft). This tremendous achievement breaks the World
Record for the highest altitude landing and take-off ever, which sets an ultimate milestone in the
History of Aviation.
The exceptional lifting power, high endurance and extended range of the H125 make any job looks
easy. The H125 can climb to 3,000 meters in 2 minutes and 21 seconds and has more then proved
its performance when it landed on the Mount Everest in a record-breaking event.

7.2 H125 Inspection Programs

The maintenance program specifies the intervals between maintenance operations that are
recommended by Airbus, irrespective of whether they are mandatory or not.
The program can:
− either be used as is,
− or be adapted by each operator to suit his own specific organization, provided he complies with
the maximum intervals.
For the performance of scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, Airbus has classified the
maintenance tasks by the following three maintenance levels:
Organizational Level (O-Level)

This Organizational Level (O-Level) comprises tasks such as the daily servicing, pre-flight checks,
visual inspections for condition, replacement of modular components and simple repairs. This work
can be performed by trained helicopter mechanics with standard tools only (no special tools
necessary).
Intermediate Level (I-Level)
This Intermediate Level (I-Level) comprises tasks such as smaller repairs ON / OFF helicopter,
periodical inspections and replacement of modular components as well as modifications. This work
can be performed by trained and experienced mechanics and may require the usage of special
tools and / or test equipment.
Depot Level (D-Level)
The Depot Level (D-Level) comprises tasks such as repairs OFF helicopter, overhaul of major
components and heavy airframe repair. This work can be performed by Original Equipment
Manufacturer (OEM), authorized repair centers or Airbus and requires the usage of special
overhaul and repair tools, as well as test benches (if required) according to repair manuals or
instructions.
The following table provides an overview of all inspections. Scheduled inspections with shorter time
intervals are included in those with longer time intervals.
Scheduled airframe inspections Maintenance level Estimated mean man hours
P inspection
O – Level Pilot’s task
(10 flight hrs or 7 days periodicity tasks)
S Inspection
O – Level 12 MMH
(150 FH or 1Year)
T Inspection
I – Level 87 MMH
(600 FH or 2 Years)
2T Inspection
I – Level 40 MMH
(1,200 FH or4 Years)
144 M inspection D level 200 MMH
Note: All the "hands-on" aircraft values mentioned here above are given on the basis of a 20,000 FH life
cycle. They refer only to the scheduled inspections for the standard helicopter without optional
equipment in accordance with the Master Servicing Manual (MSM). The announced mean man
hours are without incoming flight, work preparation, reworking, servicing, Service Bulletin (SB)
implementation and unscheduled maintenance.

Technical Data
Continuous Maintenance Program (CMP)

As an alternative to the current maintenance program described above, Airbus provides the
Continuous Maintenance Program (CMP). The CMP consists of individual work packages to be
performed each within a defined time frame. A specific tolerance is effective for all work packages,
which refer to the start and end time of the individual work packages. Thus, this program allows the
continued flight operation without being interrupted by inspections with longer downtimes.
Staged Intermediate Inspections (SII)

As an alternative to the Intermediate Inspection described above, Airbus provides the Staged
Intermediate Inspection (SII). The SII is divided into three schedulable work packages in which the
items of the Intermediate Inspection for the individual helicopter components are grouped together,
enabling for instance to perform the SII in three consecutive nights in order to provide an
uninterrupted aircraft availability during daytime. A specific tolerance is effective for all work
packages, which refer to the start and end time of the individual work packages. Thus, this program
allows the continued flight operation with minimal interruptions due to requirements of the
Intermediate Inspection.
Engines Inspection Program

The following table provides an overview of all engine inspections. Each inspection has to be
performed for the respective time frame.
