Bruno Guibal's G2

Bruno's G2 is a good looking ship, and will be available with many new features.

Plasma ignition, all composite airframe, ditto rotor blades, no finite parts anywhere, other than the Lycoming 0-360 J2A series engine. (delivers 145 bhp) Automatic carb heat control, rrpm band from 450 to 620, fenestron 7 blade T/R system, 700 Kg MAUW, VNE 130 knots, 171 litres fuel capacity which can give five hours endurance, 35 litres an hour, glass instrument presentation with conventional back up on the vital figures, 20 Kg per pax luggage locker, great rotor inertia with a possible two second delay for lever down following power failure, fly and forget rrpm co-relation and a fluffy tuft of wool as a balance aid.

EASA certified on 14th December 2007.

Read February issue of LOOP for my full air test and a dozen on site pictures.

Best wishes to you all,

Dennis Kenyon.
