N352HD Aircraft Overview
Performance Profile
The Eurocopter AS350 B3 operates at 140 knots with 352 NM of range. N352HD is powered by 1x Turbomeca Arriel 2B at 847 shp, supporting a ceiling of 23,000 feet. Helicopter operations bypass runways entirely.
Mission Profile
The Eurocopter AS350 B3 carries up to 5 passengers. N352HD operates where helicopters provide the only practical access: urban helipads, offshore platforms, remote sites, and point-to-point transfers.
Charter Authorization
N352HD's operator holds authorization covering on-demand helicopter operations. The Eurocopter AS350 B3 is ideal for urban transfers, offshore routing, and time-critical missions.
Insider Note
Helicopter maintenance is driven by flight hours and cycles (takeoffs and landings). N352HD's 1x Turbomeca Arriel 2B have specific time-between-overhaul intervals that directly affect operating costs and scheduling.
Charter & Acquisition Briefing
N352HD is a 2001 helicopter under T SCOTT DUNN CONSTRUCTION INC DBA. Rotorcraft serve the most time-sensitive transportation missions in aviation: EMS, offshore, VIP urban transport, and aerial work.
Fleet Position
Over 10,000 helicopters are on active U.S. registrations. FAA data shows N352HD based in PHOENIX, OR. The U.S. helicopter fleet serves EMS, offshore oil and gas, law enforcement, utility, VIP transport, and flight training. Maintenance infrastructure is extensive, with turbine helicopter service available at most major airports.
Charter Availability
N352HD is Part 135 charter authorized. Helicopter charter rates range from $1,500 to $8,000 per flight hour depending on type and configuration. VIP helicopter charter serves urban transfers (Manhattan to JFK in 8 minutes), resort access, and event transportation where ground travel times exceed 2 hours.
Market Position
N352HD is a 2001 helicopter from the modern production era. Pre-owned values range from $1M to $5M. Modern helicopters benefit from improved safety systems, glass cockpit avionics, and engines designed for longer times between overhaul.
Modern helicopter acquisitions offer a balance of current technology and significant depreciation from original delivery price. For operators entering helicopter operations, modern pre-owned aircraft provide capable platforms at accessible price points.
Mission Profile
Helicopter VIP transport serves the most time-sensitive passengers. Board at a Manhattan heliport, arrive at East Hampton 35 minutes later. Board at a Beverly Hills rooftop, arrive at a Malibu estate in 12 minutes. The helicopter serves the door-to-door promise that even private jets cannot fulfill.
When to Choose Something Else
Helicopters are wrong for weather-sensitive operations. Helicopters operate under VFR or IFR at low altitudes where weather impact is greatest. Icing, low ceilings, and visibility restrictions ground helicopters more frequently than jets operating at FL350+. For schedule-critical travel in all weather conditions, a fixed-wing jet provides better reliability.
Ownership & Operations
Operating costs for business jets break into fixed and variable categories. Fixed costs (hangar, insurance, crew salaries, management fees) accrue whether the aircraft flies or not. Variable costs (fuel, maintenance reserves, landing fees, handling) scale with flight hours. Owners flying fewer than 200 hours annually often find charter or fractional ownership more economical than whole aircraft ownership.
Pre-Purchase Considerations
Total time on airframe and engines is the primary metric for aircraft valuation. Lower-time aircraft command premium pricing but cost more upfront. Higher-time aircraft offer lower acquisition cost but carry higher near-term maintenance exposure. The break-even analysis depends on planned utilization: buyers flying 400+ hours annually amortize acquisition cost faster and tolerate higher initial investment.
Charter Market Context
Jet card programs and membership plans lock in hourly rates for guaranteed availability. Cards typically require a $50,000 to $500,000 deposit and offer 24 to 48 hour booking windows with fixed hourly pricing. The value depends on usage frequency: clients flying 25+ hours annually benefit from rate certainty and guaranteed availability. Below 25 hours, on-demand charter often provides better economics.
