Tiger Prototype Photos

[Shawn Coyle]

I'm looking for a photograph of two Tiger prototypes that show the two different horizontal stabilizer configurations.
Need it to finish off Volume 2 of Ray Prouty's Helicopter Aerodynamics (the columns he did from 92 to present that haven't been put in book form yet).
Any one care to dredge through their collections???
Worth a couple of copies of the book when it's done.

Are these any help?

They came from: FLUG REVUE: Eurocopter Tiger prototype status (http://www.flug-revue.rotor.com/FRtypen/FRtrack/TigerPR.htm)

You could try looking here - Eurocopter EC665 Tiger Walkaround (http://www.b-domke.de/AviationImages/Tiger.html) which has photos of PT1 through PT5R (a better shot of the stabilizer on PT1 can be found here (http://www.airliners.net/photo/France---Army/Eurocopter-EC-665-Tigre/0306908/&sid=43b43b388429bacca414922c4796cd7b))

You could always try Airliners.net (http://www.airliners.net/) where you have the ability to contact the photographer.

Hi Shawn,

From reading, the horizontal stabilizer was tested in forward position but then remained in the rear position for production.. is that correct?

Is it F-ZWWY with the forward horizontal stabilizer?

There are some early 1990 photos here..
