Airbus H135 with Helionix approved in Canada

摘要

Transport Canada has granted certification validation to the Airbus Helicopters H135 light twin equipped with the Helionix avionics system. The approval follows those awarded by the FAA in 2018 and EASA in 2016. Helionix is designed with three large electronic displays, is night-vision-goggle (NVG) compatible, features a four-axis autopilot, and includes a first-limit indicator that highlights the appropriate engine instrument data for the pilot in one indicator. Helionix already is standard on the company's H175, H145, and, soon, on the H160 super-medium and medium twins. "The H135 has proven itself to be one of the most reliable aircraft on the market," said Dwayne Charette, president and COO of Airbus Helicopters Canada. "This recent certification now allows us to deliver the H135 with the latest technologies to our customers, providing them the combination of power, safety, and maneuverability."
