Hello !

thank you all for answers ! Just to narrow mission profile helicopter has to take 6 male adults, including pilot, each having mass of ~90 kg and fly for 125 NM in VMC conditions. Then come back with the same load without refuel with 45 minutes of fuel to spare ( 250 NM total trip ). Takeoff is made in vertically to about 30 feet AGL and then acceleration can begin. Landing profile is other way round.

Any chance that Long Ranger will cope with that mission ?
