FredR Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 The seat backs and collective head look Eurocopter to me (just like the EC135). Other than that, I would guess the new EC225. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The nice thing about current Eurocopter evolution is the consistency in avionics. No FLI, no VEMD in this cockpit. A 120 pilot could get into a 225 and recognize the limits. Maybe not much else, but it's a start. I'm surprised that has only one FMS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its gotta be a S-92! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arotrhd Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 NO, NO NOOO. It's the refurbed R-22 without Frank's approval. It's gotta be. -WATCH FOR THE PATTERNS, WATCH FOR THE WIRES- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miloe Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 New R66 with the open/busy cockpit layout. But anyway, counting LCDs from the left, whats the second and fourth panels showing?Looks kinda like some type of weapons layout for a videogame.

RagMan Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 (edited) Those 2nd and 4th display units you are referring to look similar to what we had in the UH-60 mike model blackhawks. They display fuel quantity in each tank, have a caution and advisory box in the lower corners, and display much of the aircraft's primary flight instrumentation across the multifunction display. Pressures, rpmr, ng, np, limitations, etc are displayed across the multifunction display. Typically a component installed on much larger airframes.

AdminLB Posted February 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 Those who said S92.......CORRECT-A-MUNDO! It was the S92 sim at the Flight Safety Intl West Palm Beach FL learning center. Here is the real aircraft I was in in January in beautiful gulf coast LA. These boys start very early in the GOM.......0500! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
