THE_COYOTE Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Anybody hear about Van Horn making 212 tail rotor blades? It would be really nice not to have to sign off ( and do) an inspection every shut down! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iChris Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) Anybody hear about Van Horn making 212 tail rotor blades? The basics about Bell Helicopter signed a memorandum of understanding with Van Horn Aviation to develop a composite tail rotor blade for the Bell 212 and Bell 412. Under the agreement, Van Horn will design, certify and manufacture the rotor blades, with Bell Helicopter Engineering participating in the design and certification processes. When certified, the blades will be distributed under Bell Helicopter’s Aeronautical Accessories brand. Bell Helicopter currently serves as the exclusive distributor for the Van Horn composite tail rotor blade for the Bell 206 B/L under the Aeronautical Accessories brand. That (AD-2008-10-03) also included the 204B, 205A, 205A-1, 205B, 210, and 412. Edited March 18, 2013 by iChris 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
