Military logs are available from when the aircraft was operated by the Air National Guard. Logs are also available from 1995 to the present.

Book 2 is available and contains references to transfer information from Bell Helicopter to the US Army. All maintenance and component time logs are available and complete. There has been no damage to the aircraft since 1995 and there is no evidence of damage or repair from prior use. There is no indication of any corrosion. This aircraft was manufactured specifically for the military and never given an airworthiness certificate because the military does not need one. There are several distinct differences between a Bell 206B and an OH58C/Bell 206A. The OH58C has longer main rotor and tail rotor blades, a larger engine, and different RPMs. Not all parts are interchangeable. Any civil use would require some type of FAA certificate. The general use for these types of ships are Restricted category for agricultural use, off-shore use, or the Experimental category for private use. Refer to the FAR's for more specifics.
