For those wishing to use their aircraft commercially, the Hill HC50 is the fully certified option and will be offered at a higher purchase price to support the costs of commercial use certification.
How the Program Works
Ownership of a Hill HX50 provides the high-performance, luxury aircraft you always wanted with the skills and knowledge you need to be a holistically safe independent owner-operator. Our approach intelligently fuses standards-meeting, factory-built aircraft with the crucial owner-operator training, education, and insight that can only be effectively delivered though involvement in the construction of your own aircraft.
HX50 not only signals a paradigm shift in aircraft design, but also in how we equip private pilots to be independent owner-operators.

The Ideal Option for Private Owners
For private owners, the HX50 cost model is nothing short of revolutionary. Calendar depreciation is essentially eliminated with a long 5,000-hour, on-condition TBO and no 12-year aircraft and engine overhaul requirement. Hill’s commitment to low ongoing maintenance and insurance costs drive down the remaining fixed costs, allowing the majority of entry-level private helicopter owners to keep their aircraft to themselves and avoid the perils and uncertainty of leaseback.

- Excellent progress! Building the future is hard. Few understand this and even fewer have what it takes to make it a reality. Every day the first flight inches closer. Keep going and remember to take time and sharpen the axe 🫡
- I'm wondering why absolutely everything needs to created from scratch? Surely the are already proven parts that could have been utilised.. is it for ultimate cost control or something?
- Frustrating. If this can be made to work and if the product sells and is manufactured in the uk then it will be a Great Leap Forward for our aerospace industry. Is there not an off the shelf engine you could use for early flight tests?
- Sorry, but for me, this project has always sounded as a scam since the beginning.
Nothing makes sense to me.
I really hope I'm wrong.
Do they have open door factory facilities?
Placing an order for this without a detailed factory facilities tour will be the dumbest thing anyone can do.
