As a proud supplier of bevel gears for the tail rotor of helicopter applications (such as Sikorsky's Black Hawk and Boeing's Apache), allow us to explain how a helicopter is able to fly smoothly and without getting the pilot dizzy. 😵 Read more via the article in the comments below. 👇 #BMTAerospace #helicopter #tailrotor

Thunderstorms are more than just a spectacle of nature; they are a significant concern for aviators. These storms, characterized by towering cumulonimbus clouds, heavy rain, and violent turbulence, can also produce hail, rapid icing conditions, and strong winds capable of causing significant damage to the aircraft and posing a serious risk to flight safety. The sheer power of thunderstorms is a testament to the forces of nature, and understanding these phenomena is crucial for any pilot.

To dominate air battles one must possess BVR, AWACS, IFR and NCW.

HEMS and helicopter departures cannot afford to be delayed by the flight plan. RocketRoute QuickFile allows pilots to self-dispatch and safely get airborne in seconds. Learn more: https://hubs.ly/Q02mTyCG0 #aviation #rocketroute #flightplan

Repetition is the key to mastery, and Frasca helicopter simulators make it possible. Train on multiple approach and departure procedures for various airfields, multiple times, all in a short span. https://bit.ly/3SnL5zU #helicopters #flighttraining #pilottraining

"In everything, love simplicity." -St. Francis de Sales Before every flight, pilots complete a pre-flight checklist. The longest such checklist was for the Convair B-36 Peacemaker, a 10-engine bomber with 336 spark plugs. It took the ground crew six hours to prepare, after which the 15-person flight crew had a checklist of 600 items. A single flight could be aloft for 40 hours. While this checklist was necessary for the B-36, we can often tend to overcomplicate things. About value, The Armstrong Company says, "our customers define it; we deliver it." It's a simple statement with significant ramifications. What matters most? Start there. #simplicity #success #value #NelsonNugget

A better way to fly your Gulfstream G650 is here. The Block 3 upgrade for PlaneView enhances flight safety, advances situational awareness on the ground and in the air, and creates a better flying experience for both pilots and passengers.
