This is a $30,000,000 Dollar Tilt Rotor Helicopter | The Leonardo AW609

[@chrissmith7669]

I can’t wait to see them in the commercial fleets.

To fly is heavenly, to hover divine. Rotary wing aviation there is simply no substitute. I do have some friends that worked V-22's and they said they are pretty complex. With the advent of the new V-280 valor I think it really puts a new spin on tilt rotor technology. To me the fewer moving parts the better and only tilting the prop & gearbox seems to make much more sense. FLY NAVY!!!

[@AllanBrogdon]

I worked on the mock-up of the D-609 which is the start of this aircraft.

[@awsusergroup]

Do you have LinkedIn?

[@awsusergroup]

I would like to ask you some information about it

[@muffmat]

What license do you need to fly it, helicopter or fixed wing?

[@VictorSuccessWinners]

Will certainly buy this ...

[@LordDustinDeWynd]

Are the engines cross-linked so that if one engine fails, both shafts keep turning?

[@finnthirud]

Good job! ☺️

[@allanbrogdon3078]

Did a little work on the mock-up. It was the D-609 back in the 90s.

[@discoverydroid2134]

better than any helicopter 🚁....I'd buy it if i can afford it

[@phuongcao7131]

Looks like the pv-40 from turboprop flight simulator

[@Lospotterlombardo]

Lol, but with two engines

[@phuongcao7131]

Yeah

[@alessiosem2238]

There is no official price yet so i don't know how you came up with 30M.

[@rg500delta]

I see 25M base price in a few articles

[@alessiosem2238]

@@rg500delta aviation media? Please link them 'cause i can't find anything about the price.

[@yahiatalbi3606]

Speed cruise??

[@vergessenhabeich814]

What is its range?

[@WALTERBROADDUS]

1000nm

[@Robert-fs1pb]

Without auxiliary tanks.1000 NM.

[@mikeparker6322]

30,000,000 is jus the beginning. The per cost hour to operate could be eye opening.

[@chrissmith7669]

Should fall between turboprop & helicopter operating costs according to targets.

[@rayjames6096]

Similar to the Osprey...? It gets its technology from Bell helicopter which developed the Osprey.

[@malcolmabram2957]

All tiltrotor aircraft are currently military. See them often where I live.

[@chrissmith7669]

It’s the next generation up from Osprey. Much evolved
