Airbus Helicopters H125 vs Airbus Helicopters H130 vs Airbus Helicopters H135 vs Airbus Helicopters H145 vs Leonardo Aw109 Grand New vs Leonardo Aw109 Trekker vs Leonardo Aw119kx vs Leonardo Aw169

All are light-to-intermediate civil helicopters, but they split into single‑engine utility types and twin‑engine passenger/EMS types. The Airbus H125 and H130 are single‑engine light helicopters; the H125 is a rugged utility/“hot and high” workhorse with moderate range and typically 5–6 passengers, while the H130 is optimized for quieter, more comfortable passenger sightseeing with similar-to-better range and typically 6–7 passengers. The Leonardo AW119Kx is the comparable single‑engine class, generally offering a similar utility/passenger role with about 6 passengers and competitive range. The Airbus H135 and H145 are light twin‑engine categories; the H135 is a compact twin widely used for EMS and short‑haul passenger work, typically 5–7 passengers with moderate range, while the larger H145 carries more (commonly 7–9) with similar-to-better range and cabin volume. Leonardo’s AW109 Grand New and AW109 Trekker are light twin‑engine helicopters oriented to fast corporate/passenger missions, usually 6–7 passengers with moderate range; the Trekker emphasizes utility and skids. The AW169 steps into the intermediate twin category, generally offering the longest range and the highest capacity here, typically 8–10 passengers.
