Simple & Effective Performance Solution
Operators worldwide are amazed that something so
simple contributes so much to everyday operations.
The BLR Tailboom Strake Kit is the most cost effective, multi-functional,
value added, modification ever developed for single rotor
helicopters (with enclosed tailbooms). The culmination of
seven years wind tunnel and flight test work by NASA/US Army
researchers during the late 1980's the design has been optimized
for ease of installation and improvements to handling qualities,
climb & cruise flight and increase overall yaw control
safety margins, all while showing reductions in direct operating
costs. This technology is now available in kit form for installation
on Bell Models:
204B, 205A-1, 205B (Huey II), 212, AB212,
412, UH-1 and AH-1.
