Only one of these helicopters listed was never built. The others were all made, (maybe experimental), but all built and flown...except one.

 

Which one was never built? (at least to the best of my knowledge!)

I'm thinking either the 47 with the ridged rotor system or the Huey...that's a SWAG tho :D

Hijack! Speaking of the 47, on every 204/205/212/412, the are two (2) Bell 47 parts (same item); what & where are they?

ooooh, good one. I'm not up on my Hueys and heavy lifters much, I was going for some of the main rotor parts, but I'll sleep on it!

Well google already proved my answer was wrong. Good question though.

Wow, 375 views and only 21 one of you voted????? Damn, if you can't push yourself to click a button, you'll never make it in this pilot world!

 

Since a lot of votes were for the Bell 47/ 3 blade ship, I enclosed a photo. The rest you can look up for yourself. The last entry, a Huey, was just made up by me....so hopefully they never tried building one.

 

They actually built two different 4 seat versions of the B47. The J model had the single pilot seat in front and a 3 seat bench in back, the KH version built by Kawasaki was a more traditional 4 seater.

 

Thanks for playing.

I hoped you had put the 1-bladed Bolkow as an option :blink: BO-102 (trainer) and BO-103 I think

Yeah, but the 102 was designed to never leave the ground! Still some pretty weird stuff out there..
