Yes, Bell /Agusta have the BA 609 Tilt Rotor 8 passenger $12 – $14 million. However, a FAA and EASA Tilt Rotor Fight Certificate must be granted to enter the civilian market, and that is still many years away (or perhaps never). *At no time has a Tilt Rotor demonstrated a successful power off landing.
