Skids
[QUOTE=helispotter;11553455]In one of the photos shared by chopper2004 in post #1291, the skidded version shows the skids project slightly forward of the front 'cross tube'. But I don't think this is meant to serve as a boarding step as it seems too close to the front of the cabin doo
I was told by Dave the head of composite that the forward projection is purely to reduce drag
