Interesting little design which appeared in the static park at this year's Heli-Expo: the SBM Development GmbH RT 216. Two-seats, 1,544 lb MTOW, 160 hp turbine (not a Solar T62T for once - an "SJ A-160"), elastomeric rotorhead and fenestron.

Scans of the two-page flyer which accompanied the aircraft
here and
here.
An interesting project (like the
FAMA KISS 209), but we'll have to see if enjoys a more successful development than the
Composite Helicopters KC630...or the
Delta D2...or the
Heli Air Design HAD 1-T Helineo...or the
Helips...or the
Pegasus PH200PJ...or the
Rotor International RI 30 Eaglet...or the
Sagita Sherpa...or the
Youngcopter NEO...etc.
