A mostly aluminium airframe with composite parts where they save weight: control surfaces, fairings, the tail or the rotor blades. A carbon-fibre fuselage with aluminium wings.

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 1105/US for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

CLEARTail number reuse

No other airframe has carried N905KC according to the deregistered file. [2]
