== Introduction ==
This is a model of a '''Eurocopter EC130 B4''', a single engine light [[helicopter]] based and developed from their [[Ecureuil AS 350 Helicopter|AS350]]'s.
Indeed “EC130 B4” is just a marketing name by [[Eurocopter]], the real name is still AS350 B4.  It is a widebody variant of the AS350 B3 with a completely new designed passenger cabin and fuselage, and equipped with a fan tail instead of the conventional two-blade tailrotor. With this the EC130 B4 is much less noisier  than other helicopters of this class.
