Airbus Helicopters H125 vs Airbus Helicopters H130 vs Bell 505 Jetranger X vs Leonardo Aw119kx vs Leonardo Sh09 vs Md Helicopters Md 530f vs Robinson Helicopters R66

All seven are single‑engine light helicopters, but they split into utility‑leaning and passenger‑comfort roles. The Airbus H125 is the most utility‑oriented “light single,” typically carrying a pilot plus up to five passengers (or more mission equipment) and offering among the longest practical ranges in this group, commonly in the ~330–360 nm class depending on tanks and fit. The Airbus H130 shifts toward quieter, smoother passenger touring with a wider cabin; it commonly carries a pilot plus up to six passengers, with a similar but often slightly lower real‑world range than an H125 when configured for comfort. Bell’s 505 is a modern light single aimed at training and light commercial work, generally seating a pilot plus four passengers and delivering mid‑pack range (roughly ~300+ nm). The Leonardo AW119Kx is a higher‑powered light single in the utility/tour segment, usually a pilot plus six passengers, with range broadly comparable to the H125 class. The Leonardo SH09 (as a program) targets the same light single category, typically envisaged around five seats and moderate range. The MD 530F is a compact hot‑and‑high utility helicopter, typically four seats and shorter range than the larger‑cabin types. The Robinson R66 is a cost‑focused light single, usually a pilot plus four passengers, with moderate range often around ~300–350 nm depending on configuration.
