@aheoe26104: I’m absolutely going along with you.
@all: Furthermore I have definite views on the possibility that the very early statement of the spokesman of German Luftwaffe (as quoted in http://www.pprune.org/rotorheads/578...ml#post9376505) might have its sources also in AH (AHD) being the the 'purveyor' of German FMOD.
The line between genius and insanity is a very fine one. But out of my technical view, the „suspension bar solution“ of (SUPER) PUMA - as realized by AS/ECF/AHF - might be genius, but is'nt at all ingenious (please compare http://www.pprune.org/rotorheads/578...ml#post9372108).
AS 330 had been a design for a MTOW of approx. 7,5 to, now H225 is approaching 12 to.
- The ’footstool’ must have legs and fittings being dimensioned to present forces, loads and vibrations and must have four or five legs (due to harmonically oscillations and well-balanced forces) whichever we are talking about H 225, H215 or AS 332L1/L2,
- A barbeque plate being semi-elastic fixed is nice, but where are the 3-dimensional dampers?
- Have anybody ever heard of an exploded housing of an automatic transmission of a motorcar? Really not, because the caves of epicyclics are not the housing, repective are isolated from the housing of the gear box.
For me (Super) PUMA is a mirror image of the french spectrum „savoir vivre“ to „laissez faire“, but the times of “Saint-Exupéry“ in aviations are since 7 decades over and it seems “Super Puma“ being 5 decades old will become the very same myth.
