Foreword

The AS 350 B3 is "the high performance" version of the single engine ECUREUIL

range.

This helicopter is powered with a TURBOMECA ARRIEL 2B engine of 847 shp

(632 kW) and equipped with the FADEC system (Full Authority Digital Engine Control).

It is totally suited for operations in conditions such as mountainous or elevated areas.

The pilot benefits from the VEMD (Vehicle and Engine Management Display) on the

instrument panel : a new generation of integrated instrumentation which allows him to

see at a glance the main vehicle and engine parameters on a dual LCD screen.

Thanks to these technological innovations, the AS 350 B3 offers the operators the

highest performances in its category, with enhanced safety and reduced pilot workload.

With an under-slung load capacity of 1,400 kg (3,086 lb) and a high rate-of-climb, this

helicopter is the ideal tool to transport heavy loads and to carry out logging operations in

the mountains. When fitted with low skid landing gear, the maximum cruise speed is

140 kts.

The ECUREUIL B3, with its high cruise speed and high hook capacity is a very sought-

after aircraft for passenger transportation or utility operations.

Versatility enhancementSince year 2001, EUROCOPTER leads a policy of enhancement of the standard definition of the helicopterECUREUIL in order to improve its versatility.

A first stage saw the ECUREUIL single-engined aircraft being equipped with general equipment andcapabilities for mission equipment, most usually selected by the operators.

The second stage extends into 2003 the "Ready to fly" concept of the last-born child of the family theEC130B4 to the whole of the ECUREUIL single-engined aircraft. Consequently, a helicopter in standarddefinition can operate in flight VFR day and night in the majority of the countries.

A set of instruments and radiocommunication / radionavigation equipment is thus integrated in the 2003standard definition and includes :

� 1 Gyro-horizon� 1 Gyro-directional� 1 Turn and bank indicator� 1 VHF/VOR/LOC/GS� 1 Course Deviation Indicator� 1 VHF/VOR/LOC/GS/GPS� 1 Transponder (mode A+C)� 1 Altitude encoder� 1 ELT (2 frequencies)� 1 ICS + passenger interphone

7- Customer Service Overview

Assets

� Possibility to perform maximum of maintenance tasks by operators through modular exchange,

� Low required manhour on the scheduled maintenance,

� Maintenance simple and easy to perform thanks to optimized accessibility to dynamic components andequipment that is confirmed by Ecureuil large experience (more than 11 millions flight hours),

� Among innovative equipment providing flight information, the “Vehicle and Engine Multi-function Display”(VEMD) also offers maintenance aids (failure data recording and troubleshooting information),

� Limited number of tools,

� No test bench,

� Among technical publications, Master Servicing Recommendation has been written in such a manner thatit can be used as a maintenance tasks repertory,

� Customer Services network through numerous and experienced service stations thanks to large Ecureuilfleet (nearly 3000 A/C) flying all over the world.

Maintenance and maintainability data"Scheduled" and "unscheduled" maintenance are considered in manhour figures given hereafter.

Scheduled maintenance� Possibility to perform maintenance tasks according to each operator needs :

� blocked whole inspection (helicopter unavailable during all the inspection duration),

or

� “splitted” inspection ( helicopter available for flight since the inspection is performed in severalbatches of maintenance operations, in respect with the limitations and periodicities defined in theMaster Servicing Recommendation).




Estimated Mean Man Hour per Flying Hour (MMH/FH)(standard aircraft - 300 Flying hour/year – 2 flights perday)

0.69 MMH/FH 1 (Scheduled + unscheduled + SB implementation)

Detail� Basic

� Daily checks : Pilot’s task

� 100 flight hrs periodicity tasksIncluding average “corrective” works 3 MMH 2

� 500 flight hrs or 24 months periodicity tasksIncluding average “corrective” works 119 MMH

� Unscheduled (reliability cause) 0.28 MMH/FH

� SB implementation 0.05 MMH/FH

� 12 years inspections requiring 330 MMH

DocumentationEurocopter AS 350 B3 technical documentation, pleasant and easy to consult, is basically supplied:

� On an Interactive Electronic Support (CD-ROM OPEN 350) that includes the whole documentation :Operating (except Flight Manual), Maintenance, Identification and Specific documents.

The CD-ROM product presents great advantages such as :

� More efficiency in maintenance thanks to :

− Direct and instantaneous access to manuals and data by "hypertext" navigation− Easy search by keywords and multiple criteria− Highly portable technical publications in an extremely compact format

� Quick updating without insertion mistake risk.and

� On paper- Flight Manual- Other documents : Master Servicing Recommendation, Service Bulletins.

Note : 1. As an option, the whole documentation is available on paper.

2. Turbomeca Arriel 2B engine documentation is available both under CD-ROM and paper format.
