First serial Norwegian EMS
Just seen on Airbus Helicopters FB group, photos of the First serial H5 for Norwegian EMS customer (photos courtesy of Airbus Helicopters).

Interesting how LONG the sleeve of the blades are ! It looks aerodynamically lift uneffective for a great part of the blade (because there is not much of trailing edge on the sleeve)
would that mean that the stalled center hub section is larger in autorotation, just thinking. nice looking ship with 5 blades from above

Anybody told the pilot that having a mask dangling from your ear is just not worth the 'effort'? Binary choice really: keep it in your pocket or wear it. Anything else is just daft.
The one in the RHS in the middle photograph
What's the black leading edge goo (1 metre from tips) in the first photo?
Doesn't like the refective leading edge and prefers to see a consistent surface length.
Matt black paint is applied and you are correct it may not have dried completely.
Apparently -
It views each blade from each rotor through a ten degree window and operates on the principle that a high-flying blade will remain in the field of view longer than a low flying blade.
Zoom in on the Honeywell FasTrak tracking camera mounted above the radar dome and to the left of the wiper attachment in all 3 photos.

It is basically a laser tachometer but analyses more info than just the RPM which will actually comes from a reference pickup on the swashplate.

The black mark on the blade is PU blade tape over the butt joint in the metal erosion strip.

Really? I didn't notice that!!
RVDT, got it! Yes, I can see the camera now, and the silver tape running down the side taping the wire harness to the canopy.
The black has been removed in the picture with the 3 guys standing in front of it.
