Great informative video indeed! Just for stake of correctness, Mk.I version (or A119) had either fully analog cockpit or IDS displays like those of the video. Mk.II version (AW119MkII) had initially the same IDS displays, but also increased MTOW and 102% rotor speed for improved performance and safety in power-off landing. Then the Mk.II platform got in 2015 the Garmin glass cockpit, G1000H initially and now NXi. Finally it obtained FAA IFR certification with the new 4-displays Genesys avionics (unfortunately not yet civil certification in Europe), and won the US Navy tender for 130 training helicopters as the TH-73 Thrasher. Currently in production also for Turkish Armed forces😊
What a great video. Thanks for the information. Sir, i do have a question. Is it possible for a helicopter fly through heavy rain. If not, what do pilot have to do if helicopter suddenly pass through the heavy thunderstorm rain?
Another great video....appreciate that one. When I make it to Elstree, I’m hoping I get to say hello and, poke around your 119. I’m trying to talk the boss into one. The reason being....the range!!!! What’s normal cruise...? Similar to a Squirrel?
Great video,how did you get into flying helicopters,was it something you wanted to do as a kid. Is finding a good flying job hard when you first qualify.
What is the cockpit size of a 119 compared to a 109. I'm six foot 3 and I didn't fit into a 109 cockpit without yoga. And after 2 hours of flying I couldn't get out, or walk properly.
Loved the banter with the tower...
What a fine quality gentleman.
Maquina fantástica.

4 hours at sea level @ 75% giving you about 125kts with floats and it will lift what ever you can fit into it
😍

£15k - 20k insurance , burns 180kgs of fuel an hour in the cruise , the annual is normally about £30k, between annual services on average £10k a year
