Interesting facts about the MBB Bo 105
✈ The Bo 105 made its first flight on 16 February 1967 at Ottobrunn, West Germany, and entered service in 1970.
✈ Bölkow designed the type; Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm built it and later Eurocopter (now Airbus Helicopters) continued production until 2001.
✈ The helicopter uses a rigid, hingeless titanium rotor head with four glass-fiber composite blades, which enables precise control and aerobatic displays.
✈ Civil Bo 105 variants typically seat one or two pilots plus up to three passengers on a rear bench, with quick-change medevac and utility layouts.
✈ Large rear clamshell doors allow straight-in loading of stretchers and bulky cargo, a feature valued by EMS and SAR operators.
✈ Common civil models include the Bo 105CB/CBS and the longer-fuselage LS A-series, powered by twin Allison/Rolls-Royce 250 turboshafts.
✈ Production and license assembly took place in Germany and abroad, including Spain, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Canada, supporting a wide spares base.
✈ Airbus Helicopters and approved service centers continue long-term support and parts availability for the legacy Bo 105 fleet.

What missions suit the Bo 105 on the used market?
The Bo 105 excels in EMS, law enforcement, utility lift, aerial work, and training. Its clamshell rear doors and flat floor make it popular for medevac and cargo roles. Buyers can equip cabins for VIP shuttle, patrol, or light offshore support.
Which Bo 105 variants are most common for civil buyers?
Civil listings often feature the Bo 105CB/CBS and the longer LS A-series. The CBS adds a stretched fuselage for more cabin volume. The LS A-3 “Superlifter” increases MTOW and hot-and-high performance. Verify the exact model in the Flight Manual and Type Certificate data before purchase.
What should I check during a pre-buy on a Bo 105?
Review main gearbox, rotor head, and blade times, and check Rolls-Royce 250 engine cycles and inspections. Confirm component life status, service bulletins, corrosion areas, landing gear and skid fittings, avionics upgrades, and any EMS or external-load equipment history.
Is OEM and aftermarket support still available?
Yes. Airbus Helicopters and approved service centers provide legacy support, spares, and technical publications for Bo 105 operators. An active aftermarket also supplies components, tooling, and STCs, which helps maintain operating availability.
