Since the advent of helicopters, more and more applications have been obtained in the civil field.
In October 1947, Los Angeles Airlines opened the world’s first helicopter flight with S-51 helicopter.
So?
The EC130 is a new 7-8 seat single-engine helicopter in the Airbus Helicopter Company’s product range.
It is characterized by roominess, comfort and very low noise levels, which can meet the most stringent noise restriction regulations around the world.
The aircraft has a very low external noise level, 7 dB below the ICAO noise limit.
These advantages benefit from the use of low noise bypass tail rotor and tail rotor speed automatic control.
The spacious modular cabin has low noise levels and crash-resistant seats that meet FAA regulations.
The EC130 uses a Turbomeca Alus 2B1 turboshaft engine equipped with a two-channel Full control unit (FADEC) and a spare control box that automatically controls the engine in the event of failure of the FADEC dual digital channels.
The aircraft is fully equipped with standard radio communication and navigation systems for daytime flight in compliance with visual flight rules, including integrated instrument panels linked to GPS.
The EC130 also has the ability to fly at night following visual flight rules.
Simple and economical to maintain, the EC130 is capable of performing a variety of missions, including tourism and passenger transport, air law enforcement, general missions or emergency medical services.
EC145 is a lightweight twin-engine multi-purpose helicopter developed by Airbus Helicopter aiming at a market vacancy.
In order to shorten the development cycle and launch the EC l45 as soon as possible, the company took a shortcut in the process of developing the EC L45, and pieced together the front fuselage of the EC135 and the rear fuselage of the BK117 to form the EC 145.
It’s actually an optimized combination of the first two.
Therefore, the EC145 integrated with Ec135 and BK117 advanced technology has the characteristics of large commercial load, long range, low noise, comfortable and spacious cockpit, light driver workload, safe and reliable system, low cost.
And meets the latest airworthiness requirements of European JJAROPS, allowing takeoff and landing in densely populated areas and urban areas.
Since its launch, EC145 has been favored by users.
Advanced technology is widely used in the design of EC145. Its high-performance rotor blades, aerodynamic optimized fuselage, cockpit with modern man-machine interface characteristics, wide-field windshield and spacious cockpit all reflect the design characteristics of EC145.
