N262MH is an Eurocopter Deutschland Gmbh MBB-BK 117 C-2, a rotorcraft with turboshaft engines (a helicopter or multicopter). It has 8 seats. It is registered to Metrohealth System, a government body in Cleveland, Ohio. The registration is valid: it was issued on March 23, 2015 and expires on March 31, 2028.
