This 2002 model Bell 407 previously operated by Helicópteros y Vehículos Aéreos Nacionales S.A. de C.V. (Helivan) in Mexico was one of a dozen interesting helicopters in the San Juan Aviation hangar at Arlington Airport in Aug. 2016. It was subsequently operated by Helicopter Express as N408MX. It was then converted in Calgary, Alberta to a Eagle Copters 407HP (which sees a 1,000 hp Honeywell HTS900 replacing the 407's the original 813 hp Rolls Royce 250-C47B turboshaft engine) and delivered in July to Air Shasta as N406AS. The 407HP is favoured for "hot and high" wildfire initial attack work.
