Pre-owned S-76A (1979-1991, discontinued). Acquisition anchored to Aircraft Bluebook Summer 2024 (via AvBuyer): original 1979-model S-76/S-76A ~$300k retail; 1997 S-76B $1.0m. Controller.com Sikorsky turbine helicopter listings span $575k-$1.4M (older A/A+/A++ at the low end of the S-76 series). HeliValue's Official Helicopter Blue Book confirms S-76A/A+/A++ resale window 1979-1990 (subscriber-gated values, not opened). Real A-model figures ($300k-$1.4M) fall below the heli_heavy_turbine $3M sanity floor because the S-76A is an older midsize twin classed as heavy here and is fully depreciated/discontinued; sourced numbers reported as-is rather than fabricated to fit the band, so limited_data=true. DOC ~$1,800/hr direct/variable (fuel ~$715/hr at 130 gal Jet-A @ $5.50, plus maintenance + reserves) per aircraftloancalculator.com S-76 analysis; consistent with myaircraftcost S-76 family.
