Lu,
Thanks for that site, but it makes no sense. Probably very old info.

The brochure at their web site uses 19,600 lbs empty weight to give them 5350 KG useful load. I was hoping one of the guys who flies them would post a figure.

The H-92 has a useful load of 5900Kg.

Ian Corrigible,
In order to "set the record straight" it has to have a stated record, and I havn't seen any brave soul actually state what it can carry! I guess some things are either too embarassing, or a state secret!

If the MGW is extended, it still has to be hovered, and according to its brochures, it barely hovers OGE at its current MGW.
