Interesting facts about the Eurocopter EC135
✈ The EC135 entered service in the mid‑1990s and became one of the best‑selling light twin helicopters for EMS, police and VIP transport.
✈ Eurocopter (now Airbus Helicopters) built the EC135 family in Donauwörth, Germany, with additional completion and support sites worldwide.
✈ The type offers two engine families: Pratt & Whitney Canada PW206B2 (P2+) or Safran/Turbomeca Arrius 2B2 (T2+), both with dual‑channel FADEC.
✈ Rear clamshell doors enable straight‑in stretcher loading, which makes the EC135 a popular choice for HEMS and rescue operations.
✈ Its Fenestron tail rotor and bearingless main rotor reduce external noise and maintenance compared with conventional tail rotors.
✈ Typical seating is pilot plus six passengers; operators can fit medical interiors, police mission kits, hoists and cargo hooks.
✈ The cockpit uses an integrated VEMD and digital autopilot, supporting single‑pilot IFR when appropriately equipped.
✈ Later H135 upgrades added higher MTOW options and improved hot‑and‑high performance while retaining EC135 cabin commonality.
