H125 aircraft configuration is crash resistant fuel system (CRFS)-compliant with C-40 cockpit integration
Onboard Systems has shipped the first delivery of its TALON LC Hydraulic Cargo Hook Swing System for factory installation at the Airbus H125 assembly line in Marignane, France. The swing system was developed under contract with Airbus and includes a suite of Onboard Systems capabilities including hydraulic cargo hook, gimbal frame, and C-40 cockpit integration.
The new hook system is available as a factory-installed option through Airbus Helicopters and was designed to be compliant with the CRFS currently part of the baseline H125 aircraft configuration.
Mike Fox, Vice President of Sales at Onboard, said: “It has been a pleasure collaborating with Airbus to provide this Onboard swing cargo hook system […] which has been requested by operators for a number of years.”
