N562AH Aircraft Overview
Performance Profile
Rotary-wing performance from N562AH: 140 knots, 352 NM range, 23,000-foot ceiling. The Eurocopter AS350 B3's 1x Turbomeca Arriel 2B provide the power-to-weight ratio that vertical-flight missions demand.
Mission Profile
The Eurocopter AS350 B3 carries up to 5 passengers. N562AH operates where helicopters provide the only practical access: urban helipads, offshore platforms, remote sites, and point-to-point transfers.
Charter Authorization
Operations authorization is active for N562AH. This Eurocopter AS350 B3 is positioned for point-to-point transfers and specialty missions. Contact The Jet Finder for scheduling.
Insider Note
The pre-owned helicopter market is driven by configuration: VIP interior, EMS equipment, offshore certification, and hoist capability each affect pricing. N562AH's 8698 build year and current configuration determine its market value.
Charter & Acquisition Briefing
N562AH is a 2019 helicopter under Unknown. 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 N562AH based in , . 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
N562AH 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
A 2019 production date places N562AH in the current generation with FADEC engines, glass cockpit avionics, and modern safety systems. Pre-owned values sit at $2M to $15M. Current-generation helicopters offer the latest in crash survivability, automation, and operational efficiency.
Acquiring a current-generation helicopter provides access to the latest autorotation aids, health and usage monitoring systems (HUMS), and terrain awareness. These systems reduce accident rates and insurance premiums while improving dispatch reliability.
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.
