Bruno Guimbal, the designer of the Cabri G2 helicopter, has been invited to give the 2017 Cierva Lecture at the Royal Aeronautical Society in London on Tuesday 10th October at 18.00.
The UK currently has the world’s largest fleet of Cabri helicopters.
Bruno will be speaking about his motivation to produce the Cabri, his design philosophy and the very different processes of Certification by both EASA and the FAA.
You can also expect to hear reference to the parallel programme on behalf of a third party to develop a diesel powered drone derivative of the Cabri.
What other possibilities might that open up?
Earlier this year Bruno Guimbal was awarded the 2017 Breguet Trophy for his contribution to rotorcraft technology.
