EFFICIENT USE OF A HELICOPTER WITH SPILLWAY DEVICES IN KAZAKHSTAN

Abstract. This article examines the effectiveness of using a helicopter with an onboard bucketto extinguish mountain and forest fires. The article presents calculated and experimental data on thedynamics of spill devices along the outer loop of helicopters in the process of draining working fluidsfrom them when extinguishing forest fires under conditions of intense convective flows […]

THE IMPACT OF EXTREME WEATHER CONDITIONS ON HELICOPTER FLIGHT

Abstract. This article discusses the technique of piloting and performing helicopter operations in the meteorological layers. The influence of weather is by far the largest contributor to all helicopter accidents. All civil aviation flights can be performed only if the flight crew knows the meteorological situation in the flight area, landing site and at alternate […]

SYSTEM FOR HELICOPTER LANDING

Abstract. This article discusses the basic principles of helicopter landing. All helicopters can perform both vertical landing and (if necessary) take-off landing (by plane). Helicopters with a drift landing gear, although they can (in principle) land at a certain horizontal speed, are not very well adapted to this and rarely use such a landing technique […]

FEATURES OF CREATING SUCCESSFUL FRAMES FROM THE AIRCRAFT WINDOW

Abstract. This article discusses ways to improve photography through the airplane porthole. Taking a propeller plane is a huge advantage. A propeller-driven plane flies, as a rule, much lower and slower. Helicopter portholes are often larger and more rectangular, which is convenient for taking pictures. To take pictures through the porthole, it is better to […]
