Airbus Helicopters H135 vs Bell 429wlg Globalranger vs Leonardo Aw109 Grand New vs Md Helicopters Md 902 Exlplorer

The Airbus Helicopters H135 is typically positioned as a light twin for EMS, police, and corporate missions, offering a moderate range (commonly in the mid–hundreds of nautical miles, mission dependent) and a practical cabin that often seats around five to seven passengers in corporate layout (or accommodates medical interiors efficiently). The Bell 429WLG GlobalRanger sits a step up in cabin volume and payload for the light-twin class, generally providing similar or slightly better real-world mission range and commonly seating six to eight passengers depending on configuration. The Leonardo AW109 Grand New is oriented more toward fast, premium corporate/VIP and multi-mission use; it often achieves comparable mid–hundreds-of-nautical-miles range but is frequently configured for about six to seven passengers with a higher-end cabin emphasis. The MD Helicopters MD 902 Explorer is a light twin known for its NOTAR anti-torque system and utility/EMS flexibility; it generally offers mid–hundreds-of-nautical-miles range as well, with seating typically around five to seven passengers depending on mission equipment and interior choices.
