I think after reading and digesting these recent inputs from qualified sources, 'No ta bloke' you had better get back to studying your FLM and practicing more realistically your OPC...to think you were quite content with your lot....worries me.
I had to chuckle when NL mentioned that the prototype Notars used the Eurocopter tail fenestron assembly.
The coup degrace...methinks
It just goes to show how gullible WE ALL ARE (the average helo pilots) when it comes to
PR hype. A "new generation" helo, is not necessarily that..... is it???
I don't envisage helo's changing their fundamentals for some considerable time to come, do you? A fancy shape, a gentle tweak of the aerodynamics, but at the end of the day, a rotor / anti torque device / control runs unchanged since 1930's.
