Welcome on our website.
At this site you can see and follow the progress of the restoration of the original Agusta Bell 204B “227” restoration.
Our commitment is to restore this Agusta Bell back into flying condition as it was used from 1962 till 1979 in the Royal Netherland Navy.
From 1962 till 1969 the father of founder Ruud Heinen, Cor Heinen and Koen Koetsier, engineer and treasurer of the foundation, flew with this helicopter.
It is a time consuming process mainly due to high costs of parts and certification proces.
We sincerely hope that the famous ”whop whop” sound form this “Huey” will be heard again on several airshows within The Netherlands.
