About the Bell 206 JetRanger
The Bell 206 JetRanger is the most successful turbine helicopter in history — a light, five-seat single-turbine flown for training, charter, utility, news (ENG), law enforcement and private transport worldwide since 1967. Powered by an Allison (now Rolls-Royce) 250 turboshaft and known for reliability, simple maintenance and a vast support network, the 206 was Bell's signature civil product for half a century. The stretched 206L LongRanger (1975+) adds two seats and a longer cabin for medevac and corporate roles. Production of the JetRanger ended in 2010; the LongRanger remained available into the 2010s.

Buying a Used Bell 206 JetRanger
Buying a Bell 206 JetRanger centres on its turbine engine(s) — time to overhaul, hot-section history and any engine maintenance program — alongside airframe hours and cycles.
What to check before buying
- Turbine engine status — hot-section and overhaul time, trend monitoring and whether the engine is on a maintenance program.
- Airframe hours & cycles — high-utilisation turboprops accumulate cycles quickly; cycles can matter more than hours.
- Equipment — cargo pod, floats/amphibian gear, de-ice and avionics all affect value.
- Corrosion & logbooks — continuous records and a corrosion inspection, especially on float or marine-operated aircraft.
- Pre-buy inspection — commission an independent pre-buy by a type-experienced shop.
