Black Bear Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 Does anyone know what the helicopter in the Eurocopter ad is, on the back of the latest issue of Rotor and Wing? My best guess is a 145, but after looking at some photos, I'm not sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldy Posted October 12, 2013 Report Share Posted October 12, 2013 (edited) Does anyone know what the helicopter in the Eurocopter ad is, on the back of the latest issue of Rotor and Wing? My best guess is a 145, but after looking at some photos, I'm not sure.I know the picture. It's the one where the ship has landed on a compass rose.....but it's a nice drawing, not an actual photo. I guessed it was an EC145-T2 with the fenestron because you can see the twin vertical stabilizers in back..........maybe it's a teaser for the latest version 145? They seem to keep improving it every year or two. Edited October 12, 2013 by Goldy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Bear Posted October 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2013 That's what I was thinking too Goldy, but it seems smaller than the 145 and the blades rotate counter clockwise which has me curious as to whether it's a teaser for a completely new aircraft.

There are lots of small things different. It might just be an artist rendering, and he made features wherever the artist wanted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Bear Posted October 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 I believe it's an EC 145s Mercedes, introduced back in 2011. I'll take one, with a whopping side dish of titties and beer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
