  • Jó kis videó:)

    Mikor lett átfestve a gép? Én még régi festését ismertem...imádom egyébként:)

  • Szia!

    2004-be kapott új festést, sajnos még ebben azévben eladásra került a gép, jelenleg Angliába repül. Én is imádom, kedvenc helim!

  • The world's best helicopter

  • Disagree. Quite a sturdy craft, with high reliability, a good autorotation profile and impressive crash-resistant design, particularly the later model D's and E's.

  • @qrs11 Even the US military likes the MD 500....aka.. Little Bird

  • @cameronbosco Hello. This is not an airport. This is the bank of river DUNA in BUDAPEST (capital of Hungary) in XIII. district, end of Dráva street. The Helicopters transport their passangers (of course for expensive price) to the Hungarian Formula-1 race to Mogyoród, what is about 20 Km's. This service available only under the days of training and race. Have a nice day!

  • hi, what area are they taking off from?? What is the closest airport??

  • how much are they and how fast do they go?

  • I don't know much about this helicopter but it does look very cool and very maneuverable. Is it?

  • I agree with you.  Pretty much when you land hard in any other helicopter besides a Hughes 369E (MD500), the landing gear gives out, and the floor caves in. You crash in an MD500 though, the landing gear gives out, and the helicopter rolls like an egg. That is why they built it like that, definitely the safest helicopter around.

  • Interesting, I hadn't seen that. Not a factory job - must be aftermarket, cant be too difficult but you wouldn't want to get it wrong. But the nose would still have the C/D rounded design...unless you aftermarket upgrade that too. But by then you might as well just buy an E. By the way, I just visited MD Helicopters last week at HAI in Anaheim,CA, big display, plus had a couple of 900's on display. They seem to be coming back online after a near death experience.

  • The C V tail can be swapped out for an E T tail
