"BTW That pretty Huey of yours weighs 10,000 lbs doesn't it? Firehawk could load and drop one every three minutes, huh?"

Humm... someone from GE told me that the CT-7 engine was never evaluated for RHL operations, and threatened turning my company into the FAA if we ever operated an aircraft with the CT-7 engines performing RHL operations....

How does the Firehawk do that?

Does the S92 TC limitation for 4 lifts an hour have anything to do with the engine design?

"R00024BO Revision 4 Sikorsky Model S-92A April 26, 2005"

"NOTE 10 External lift operations limited to 4 lifts per hour."

The S92 and the Firehawk share the same basic engine family right? One is the commercial version, and one is a military version.

Do the TM's for the engine in the Firehawk address RHL?
