Bell 407GXi
EASA TCDS: single turbine, two-blade main and tail rotor, skid gear. NOTE Bell page says composite rotor blades; the old record's 'four-blade main rotor' conflicts with the TCDS 2-blade description for the 206 family - the 407 has a four-blade rotor, check TCDS 407 section before publishing.
