Robinson R44 Raven I – Well-Maintained Helicopter with Strong Remaining Component Life

For sale: Robinson R44 Raven I (S/N 2073) in operational condition with fully traceable maintenance history and predictable operating costs.

General Information

• Total Time (TT): approx. 2,776 hours
• Engine: Lycoming O-540-F1B5
• Engine Time (TSO): approx. 1,576 hours
• Configuration: Suitable for training, charter, or private operations

Maintenance & Airworthiness

The aircraft has been continuously maintained under a CAMO environment (Helihansa GmbH) with complete and transparent records.

Key highlights:

• 2200-hour / 12-year inspection completed in 2023
  → Next major overhaul not due until approx. 4,380 hours TT
• Remaining structural/component life: approx. 1,600+ hours
• ARC valid until April 2027, next full airworthiness review due 2029

Current Maintenance Status

• Next 100-hour / annual inspection due in approx. 14 flight hours or July 2026
• Several minor routine maintenance items approaching due (normal for active operation)
• 50-hour engine inspection slightly overdue (~1.7 hours)

???? This is a working aircraft, not a freshly overhauled showroom unit — fully transparent and realistically priced accordingly.

Components & Remaining Life

• Major components (main rotor blades, gearbox, structure):
  → Remaining life up to approx. 4,380 hours TT
• Calendar-based components largely valid until 2034–2035
• Engine:
  → approx. 400–600 hours remaining to TBO

???? This ensures continued economic operation without immediate major investment.

Why This Aircraft Stands Out

• ✔ 2200h / 12-year overhaul already completed (major value factor)
• ✔ Strong remaining component life
• ✔ Professionally maintained under CAMO
• ✔ Ideal for flight schools or commercial operators
• ✔ Transparent technical status — no hidden surprises

Honest Assessment

This R44 is  a reliable, well-documented operational helicopter offering:

• Predictable maintenance planning
• Solid remaining life on key components
• Immediate usability (after routine maintenance items)
