Will it fit on the FATO...
The 'D' value is 60 feet proprotor tip to proprotor tip (comparable to our Bell 212 'D' value of 57 feet). Pilots can see the outer most rotating parts of the a/c unlike conventional tailrotor, and with the rigid proprotor blades 15 feet above the pavement, no danger of pax walking into them.
