Model & Market Context
This entry covers the specific airframe bearing tail number N504WP, a 2005-built Eurocopter EC120B Colibri with serial number 1418. The helicopter is recorded as registered to Lance Toland Ltd, a corporate owner based in Wilmington, DE, US, and operates on a US registration. Manufacturer attribution reflects the original builder Eurocopter, now known as Airbus Helicopters SAS. Registry records indicate corporate ownership and typical civil utility use; condition and market valuation are not published in the supplied data.
This airframe is configured with a single-pilot flight station and seating for four passengers in a five-seat cabin layout, and features a flexible floor arrangement to adapt between passenger, cargo, and utility roles. Avionics fit for the helicopter includes a Vehicle & Engine Multi-Function Display (VEMD) and Sagem avionics commonly installed on EC120 variants, supporting basic flight management and engine monitoring for single-engine operations. Typical mission profiles for this registered EC120B would be short- to medium-range transport, light utility, and charter hops consistent with a cruise of 120 kts and a range of 383 nm, operating from the owner’s base in Wilmington, Delaware, or nearby regional airports. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe would follow single-turbine practices for the installed Turbomeca Arrius 2F powerplant and the EC120’s documented inspection intervals, with attention to the flexible cabin fittings when switching between passenger and cargo configurations.
The Eurocopter EC120B Colibri occupies the light, single-engine rotorcraft niche as a small, versatile civil helicopter with five-seat capability and a modern glass-instrument fit on many examples. Competing in the same market segment are other light singles offering similar cruise speeds and seating, with buyer and charter demand often driven by operational economics, cabin flexibility and the availability of common avionics such as Sagem/VEMD installations. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe hinge on its 2005 manufacture date, cumulative hours and maintenance history under corporate ownership, and continuing support for the Turbomeca Arrius 2F and EC120 airframe systems.
