Private McDonnell Douglas MD600N D-HKAL (22966)

            Fly-by of private McDonnell Douglas MD600N D-HKAL.

Have a look at the NOTAR tail invented by McDonnell Douglas (MD-Helicopters). NOTAR means NO TAil Rotor and that´s what it is. Compressed air is used to stabilize the helicopter and deliver anti-torque control.

A positive effect of this system is that helicopters equipped with this system are not as noisy as those with a tail rotor.

The maximum speed of this MD is 152 knots (175mph, 282km/h). It is powered by a single Allison Model 250-C47 Turboshaft with (you guessed it already) 600hp (447kW). The first flight of this type was in 1995.

MD-Helicopters was sold to RDM Holdings (NL) in 1999.
