Bell 505 aircraft
[edit]Hello, After doing some research, I found out that the Bell 505's are also used for utility/SAR, 4 of them are used for training at the CMA (Caribbean Military Academy) in Jamaica, while the other 2 are used by the air force. Can this be changed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dario DeCasseres (talk • contribs) 13:51, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
