The BO 105 CBS-5 is a lightweight twin-engine 5/6-seater multi-role helicopter.
It has very high performance capability with one engine inoperative. Its four-blade, rigid main rotor ensures excellent flight performance, maneuverability and total control, even in negative "g'' maneuvers. The blades are made of composite materials and are protected by an anti-erosion shield. This helicopter offers a high safety level, as its main systems (fuel, hydraulic, electrical and lubrication) are redundant.
It is equipped with 2 Allison 250-C 20B turbine engines and is particularly suited for the medevac, police, offshore, and passenger transport operations.
The BO 105 CBS-5 is certified for IFR flights.
