The Hughes Model 500 is a light, utility civilian and military helicopter. The Model 500 was later re-designated the MD 500 by MD Helicopters, when they subsequently took over productions. The aircraft was developed as a civilian version of the Hughes OH-6 Cayuse, after it became evident that the military variant was not selling as anticipated. The Model 500 was made available with five or seven seat configurations, and possessed a spacious cabin. The rotorcraft was certified in 1966, and was utilising an Allison 250-C18B powerplant initially.
