AeroBrigham displays new external load technology in Sacramento
MRO specialist AeroBrigham will be exhibiting its new external load technology at the Aerial Firefighting North America exhibition in Sacramento, California this week
Swiss Rotor Solutions developed a Maximum Pilot View Kit (MPVK) for the AStar series light single engine turbine helicopters, which AeroBrigham will install.
Compared to other solutions, the new MPVK lift window will expand the field of vision forwards, aft and underneath for pilots by a factor of 10 by using a single piece bubble door.
The safety and pilot workload will also be improved for external load operations: pilots will have more headroom, even when wearing helmets.
AeroBrigham will also offer complete support for sales, installation and training for both Airbus and Bell helicopter installations.
The Swiss Rotor Solutions MPVK is the latest addition to the capacity for customisation, avionics, and heavy maintenance offerings at AeroBrigham. It will be displayed in Sacramento, California on 4 and 5 March on exhibit 513.
Co-owner and President David Brigham said: “We are pleased to add this option to our extensive catalogue of capabilities. We look forward to presenting our mock-up with installed MPVK at the upcoming Aerial Firefighting North America 2020.”
