01 / Model history

## Modern performance 407

Bell describes the 407GXi as a versatile machine for passenger and professional tasks. Inside the family, the equipment of the cockpit and passenger compartment can vary significantly.

If the model is chosen for regular short flights, it is useful to evaluate the entire route: access to the site, landing time, weather and backup plan. The same helicopter in different configuration gives different experiences.

02 / Manufacturer data

## Specifications and uses

407GXi - a modern version of the Bell 407 with a specific power plant and dashboard. It is reasonable to consider it separately from the earlier 407.

Bell, current page 407GXi. Additional weight and external load require the installed equipment and the permitted configuration.

### What is the GXi Index?

The GXi connects the 407 family with the updated engine and the Garmin G1000H NXi complex. This is the reason to check the full designation in the documents: the usual Bell 407 can have different avionics and parameters.

On the passenger route, the location of the seats, luggage and access to the cabin are important. Six seats can be redundant if you need fuel and equipment for the long arm on board.

### Working Universality

Bell shows the 407GXi both as a passenger and as a working machine. External load refers to a separate mode, which should not be mixed with the passenger maximum mass.

The single-engine scheme imposes requirements on the route, which must be evaluated before choosing an interior or ordering additional options.

### What to check on an individual aircraft

1. 01Compliance with the GXi specification
2. 02Avionics and installed equipment
3. 03Salon, luggage and boarding
