Today's KNOWLEDGE Share : Hill Helicopters

Today's KNOWLEDGE Share

Hill Helicopters is on a mission to build the world's first truly private helicopter, engineered for flight, designed for owners! 


For that, they took the bold decision to make the main composite structure of the HX50 in a single piece: A monolithic carbon fiber crash cell, beautifully styled and aerodynamically sculpted, that gives them the balance of performance, strength and cost effectiveness! 






The company has been able to demonstrate that their approach to making a monolarge in a single piece not only works, but is remarkably cost-effective.
