No reason why a the driveline cant be attached to a frame in the front rather than the one piece unit, its gotta be better than the AS350 canopy design which is like hiding behind a fiberglass car spoiler and expecting to survive an impact. I have no money to build anything, but it never hurts to draw your thoughtsĪltitude where the system would work, would be a major question as most other times an autorotation will get you down, but in severe cases of wirestrike, major driveline failure or structual failure. The crew capsule would drop down leaving the beating fuel filled mess behind and landing nose high onto the rear of the skids They most times incorporate a two pod look where the crew capsule which is constructed simular to a chromoly racecar cell and the rest. I always draw helicopters probly about 3 a day minimum, done it since I was about 5.

Under the scope of the agreement with Kunz GmBh, BIAL has constituted a task force that will undergo extensive hands-on training - both at BLR Airport as well as at the German manufacturer's state-of-the-art recovery training facility in Germany said the release.Īdditionally, a quick response recovery team (QRRT) will be formed and imparted with technical knowledge, enabling them to respond to critical situations, it added. This is not only important for the airport, but also for the entire aviation ecosystem as a whole,'' said Hari Marar, mananging director and chief executive officer, BIAL. ''Being prepared is the key to running a high-performance airport. ''The acquisition of this aircraft recovery equipment is an important milestone for us at Bengaluru airport.

The Bengaluru airport is the first aerodrome in the country as well as in South Asia to own the state-of-the-art kit. The effective recovery of all types of disabled aircraft in the movement area addresses key risks and ensures that operations, business continuity and organizational resilience remain unaffected, BIAL said. Last year, the private airport operator had signed a pact with German aircraft recovery kit maker Kunz GmbH to manufacture, supply, commission and maintain this specialized equipment.Īs part of this agreement, KUNZ GmbH will work with BIAL to establish a centre for disabled aircraft recovery training, making the Bangalore Airport the first in the region to have such a facility, as per the release.ĭisabled aircraft on the runway have the potential to cripple airport operations, resulting in flight delays, diversions and loss of revenue for both airlines as well as airport operators.

The kit, with multiple components, and customized for the Bangalore airport's requirement, include ground preparation tools, aircraft lifting, de-bogging, tethering, towing, and all other associated aspects of both narrow- and wide-body aircraft, BIAL said in the release. The transportable kit is capable of recovering the world's largest passenger aircraft, Airbus A380, in addition to all other type of planes during an aircraft incident on the runway, ensuring that runway closure is minimized, Bangalore International Airport Ltd (BIAL), the private airport operator managing and running the KIA, said in a release.
