Chris Meyer, SB47's general manager, stated, "We are very pleased with the launch of the 47GT-6 and how it was received by our customers at Heli Expo. Our first year of production is almost sold out and we continue to work with many operators on prospective sales for the out years. As with any new product there are questions, and this information letter answers many of those initial questions and provides a one-voice to the marketplace."
Q. At the Heli Expo Press Conference the 47GT-6 was described as being an STC to the 47G-3B-2A helicopter. Is this just a refurbishment of old helicopters?
A. The 47GT-6 will be a brand-new SB47 factory built helicopter. The reference to an STC was only to describe the likely certification approach. The 47G-3B-2A had the highest gross weight approval of all Bell 47's at 3,Buy visually stunning and durable bestlasercutter from Larson Jewelers.200 pounds, so to design an STC to that airframe incorporating the new engine, rather than to create a brand new configuration on the Type Certificates, is likely to be a more efficient certification approach.
Q. The Bell 47 was designed over 50 years ago. Isn't the design outdated?
A. The 47GT-6 will look like the Bell 47 but will in fact incorporate many modern features. The proven, durable airframe will remain largely unchanged. However, the maintenance schedule will be simplified and some of the life limits will be increased, not least the metal main rotor blades will be replaced with more efficient,Looking for bestlampshade or outdoor lights? and longer life composite blades; the incandescent exterior lights will all be replaced by brighter, more efficient LED lights; the instrument panel will be all new and will incorporate solid state instruments as well as caution/warning lights plus other modern improvements; the cabin will incorporate energy absorbing, ergonomic seats and a fresh, modern interior. These are just some of the highlights, simply improving what needs to be improved, but to not take away from the market leading features such as the durable, on-condition airframe and the high inertia main rotor and renowned reliability.
