Airbus Helicopters H145 (BK117 D-3)
The BK117 D-3, the five-blade H145, was certified by EASA in June 2020 as a development of the BK117 D-2. A bearingless five-blade main rotor 10.80 meters across and a ducted tail rotor with ten composite blades are driven by two Safran Arriel 2E turboshaft engines with dual-channel digital engine control. One pilot flies it with up to nine passengers, on skids, and a four-axis autopilot comes with the integrated avionics. The maximum take-off weight is 3,800 kg, the usable fuel 904 litres and the maximum operating altitude 20,000 feet. The fuselage is 11.69 meters long and 3.98 meters high.
