WINGS
The two wings are bolted to the aft fuselage using three hard point fittings on each side
of the helicopter. The wings are aluminum alloy skins over a spar and rib framework. A
small fin is attached to the underside of the outboard end of the main wing structures.
An aerodynamic shaped, plastic cap encloses the end of each wing, with a position
(RED / GREEN) light centrally located on the outboard surface. Both wings include
structural provisions for mounting the optional emergency flotation systems float
assemblies, which fit beneath the wing caps when installed. Each wing contains a rupture
resistant fuel cell, which is connected to the internal fuel cell feed and vent lines through
self-sealing break-away fittings.
A portion of the upper surface of each wing serves as a step surface from which the
maintenance platforms on the roof of the helicopter may be reached. Unless ordered
deleted by the customer, a 30 centimeter (12 inch) wide band of BLACK non-slip
protective coating is applied to the step area as a safety measure. The wings may be
removed to allow fitting the fuselage into a shipping container for air or sea transport.
