AH-56 Cheyenne
I`ve just read some articles about the Lockheed AH-56A program.
This tandem-seat helicopter was a main/ tailrotor configuration.
Additionally a pusher propeller on the tail and wings (wingspan 7.9 metres - about 26 feet) were fixed, which gave her a cruising speed of nearly 200 kts.
Obviously, at high speeds the whole thing worked out quite nicely.
But I´m thinking about her hover capabilities.
Was she efficient in stationary hover (prop plus fairly wide wings!)?
How about her behaviour at low speeds/hover (was it a feathered prop?).
