Sorry gents, it was DEFINITELY a Bell Test Bed. - The gent being interviewed in the clip is Arthur Young, the 'father' of Bell Helicopters: http://www.thinking-allowed.com/photos/youngbg.gif - The test machine only had a 2 bladed head. Sikorsky aircraft at the time (ie the R-4) had 3 bladed heads: http://www.panzer.cz/picture/sp_hobby/sh48002.jpghttp://www.rafmuseum.org.uk/aircraft...bhoverfly1.jpg - The test bed bears remarkable similarities to the 1st production Bell helicopter, the Model 30: http://avia.russian.ee/foto/bell_30.jpg - And, finally, the description of the YouTube clip is: "Bell Aircraft test footage of early helicopter. Pilot was thrown into blades, but only suffered minor injuries" :ok: |

Where and when did that terrible accident with the Mi-8 tailrotor happen?
How did he loose his tailboom? On the videohost site it is said that it was caused by a midair collision with another helicopter. |
