Bo105 Performance Question

Hi All,

I'm interested in the performance of a Bo105 - I'm after some performance graphs if possible. Specifically, I'd like to know what sort of useful load (fuel + crew + pax + eqpt) can be carried and still achieve twin engine HOGE at about 35-40 deg Celsius, 1000' AMSL.

Also, what single engine performance will it have? Will it be capable of maintaining height? If not, what sort of useful load will allow it to do so at this sort of density altitude? Also, what sort of useful load would allow a single engine approach to a helipad at this DA (specifically a helipad, not divert to a clear area over land where you could do a running landing in the event of single engine failure)?

I'm interested in all versions of Bo105, and also how the performance varies with model (I understand the LS versions had increased performance).

I'm happy with rough performance figures, but am also really very interested in the performance graphs from a flight manual too.

Many thanks for your help,

SBW
