Bell’s Global Customer Solutions team continue to provide exceptional customer support to global operators, earning one of the top spots in Vertical Magazine’s OEM Survey in 2024. This year at Verticon, the BasiX-Pro glass cockpit retrofit upgrade, which received FAA certification for the Bell 429 and Bell 412EP in early 2024, continues to be in great demand.
