Massive flaps and ailerons on the Helio make it a superb STOL aircraft

One of two former Aero Regional Helio 295s preserved near Baños de Agua Santa. This one is preserved at "Los Pies de Dios" lookout hill on the road to Patate near the antennas. The other one (HC-BTC) is located at a petting zoo on the road to Runtún. The aircraft is located over a base on the side of the mountain that overlooks Baños and the Pastaza canyon. One can enter the plane and it is exciting as the strong winds move the plane around.

The Helio H-370 was the first attempt to add turbine power to the Courier. A standard H-250 was re-engined with an Allison 250-B15G turbine for testing in 1969. It found little performance benefit and increased fuel consumption. Instead pursuing work on the aircraft the company decided to focus on the purpose built H-550 turboprop Helio Stallion. N6309 got it's piston engine back and became the pattern aircraft for the HT-295 tri-gear Super Courier. The nose gear equipped Courier was developed from a request by the Mexican Government and the aircraft was exported to Mexico as XA-SEW in 1973.
