The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) lists 265 registered Airbus Helicopters aircraft under the manufacturer name "AIRBUS HELICOPTERS." These rotorcraft, all powered by turboshaft engines, represent 18 distinct models. The data reflects the FAA releasable aircraft file as of 2026-10-16. Airbus Helicopters SAS, the helicopter division of Airbus, is the largest manufacturer in the industry by revenue and turbine helicopter deliveries. The company holds a 48% worldwide market share and operates from headquarters in Marignane, France, with facilities in Germany, Spain, Brazil, Canada, Australia, Romania, the UK, and the US. Originally named Eurocopter, the firm rebranded on 2 January 2014.
Fleet Composition and Top Models
The majority of these aircraft are classified as standard airworthiness (215), with six registered as experimental. The fleet is relatively modern, with half of the aircraft built in 2019 or earlier and the rest constructed between 1991 and 2026. The EC 130 T2 dominates the registry with 124 units, built between 2014 and 2026, offering eight seats. The AS 350B3 follows with 56 aircraft, built from 2014 to 2026, seating seven passengers. The H160-B accounts for 18 aircraft, manufactured between 2022 and 2026, with a capacity for 14 seats. Other notable models include the EC135 P3 (16 aircraft), EC135T3 (13 aircraft), and MBB-BK117 D-3 (11 aircraft).
Type Certificates and Geographic Distribution
Type certificate data sheets (TCDS) define the approved specifications for these models. TCDS H9EU, held by Airbus Helicopters, covers the EC 130 T2 and AS 350B3 models. The H160-B is covered under TCDS R00009RD. Geographically, Texas holds the highest number of registrations with 57 aircraft, followed by Colorado with 34, and Utah with 28. The FAA registry also lists aircraft from this manufacturer under other names, including "EUROCOPTER" (667 aircraft), "AIRBUS HELICOPTERS INC" (378 aircraft), and "AIRBUS HELICOPTERS DEUTSCHLAND" (154 aircraft). Each model has its own page with specifications and the type certificate data sheet, and every aircraft has a registration record by N-number.
