Bell helicopters need wiring inspections to prevent chafing, starting now

The US aviation regulator is ordering mandatory inspections for certain Bell 505 helicopters. This is to fix a problem where electrical wires can rub against the helicopter's structure, which could cause damage.

This is a routine safety update for a specific helicopter model. It means operators of these helicopters must now regularly check for wire damage and fix it if found. This prevents potential electrical failures that could affect flight safety.
