Carb Heat by
[email protected]
I heard, somewhere, that if you apply full carb heat and then
immediately lower the collective (on R22s and 44s)this can cause the
engine to run rough and in extreme cases can even cause engine
failure.I s there any evidence for this or is it just a silly rumour?
I have, up until now, always pulled...

I'm just having more fun than should be legal and it probably isn't if I
look far enough into the County, State and Federal statues, but I am
never-the-less. I have pretty much followed the Cafe numbers for header
length and the 4-into-one collector. Keeping in mind friendship to my...

"Airwolf" by
Sven Balzer
Hello NG,
I'm looking for the type of helicopter, that was the original for the
"Airwolf" of the movie. IMHO it was a "Bell", but how it's exact name of
this model?
How can I find some pictures, especially a blueprint?
Greetings from Germany

Have there been any successful tip-jet helicopters? by
Jeremy Thomson
I'm not aware of any tip-jet helicopters that have made it into
production.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
At first the idea seems a no-brainer, no torque to counter, no
gearbox, should result in a lighter & thus more efficient aircraft.
I suppose the devil is in the details.
Is the problem with...

CECO Vs. Bendix Fuel Controls by
Mike Th...
Does anyone know the benefits of either a CECO fuel control versus a Bendix
fuel control on the Rolls Royce 250 Series? Aside from the fact that one
works off of air pressure and the other off of fuel pressure is one better
than another?

Undersling and 2/rev by
Stu Fields
If an over weight pilot exceeds the recommended seat weight of his
helicopter, will this affect undersling enough to cause an increase in the
2/rev vibration??? Does increasing G forces cause an increase in 2/rev??

Pop out floats on a 206BIII by
Mike Th...
We operate floats on all our Jetrangers and our 407. For a 206BIII, I think
the weight difference compared to high skids is about 75lbs. As for an
effect on airspeed I'm not so sure because I'm on the maintenance side of
the company. Yet I figure 5-10 knots. If you want some precise numbers I...

Slow Flight by

http://w3n-a.blogspot.com/2008/11/slow-flight.html
Slow flight could be thought of, by some, as a speed that is less than
