I fly one as my daily driver.  Its a good helicopter, flys well, as other have said, plenty of power, good vis, I like the glass cockpit, fadec etc..  but I also fly a L when i can and I can say the L is more comfortable and dosent feel as cheap as the 505.  You can tell that Bell was shooting for a specific price point to compete with the R66.   In the end its still a Bell, the entire drive train is a 206 sans the engine, But the engine is Turbomecca Safran so its a proven system.
