THE RIGHT HELICOPTER FOR NEW GLOBAL CHALLENGES

THE BENCHMARK FOR EMERGENCY RESPONSE Designed specifically to meet the multi-mission demands of a new world, the AW139 surpasses all other medium twinengine helicopters in capability, speed, range and versatility. The avionic system reduces pilot workload, allowing the crew to concentrate on rescue, security or humanitarian operations. With the AW139, your search for a superior helicopter is now over. SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE UNDER ALL CONDITIONS The AW139 delivers best-in-class performance with a cruise speed of 165 knots / 306 kph, a range in excess of 500nm / 927 km, endurance of 5 hours, and superior hover performance. The AW139s exceptional OEI capability brings added confidence during rapid deployment of personnel. With its power reserve, the AW139 assures Category A (Class 1) superior performance from a helipad (elevated or at ground level) at maximum take-off weight. Excellent performance is granted for operations worldwide, even in extreme hot-and-high environments or harsh conditions. NEW TECHNOLOGY FOR OPTIMUM CAPABILITY State-of-the-art avionics and large displays work together with the 4-axis digital autopilot (with auto hover, SAR mode and search patterns) and full digital electronic engine control (FADEC) to minimise pilot workload. The AW139s ergonomic design, excellent handling characteristics and low vibration levels further reduce pilot fatigue and enhance passenger comfort. SAFETY IS BUILT-IN Engineered to the highest safety standards the AW139 is constructed with energy-absorbing landing gear, fuselage and seats all designed to meet the rigorous JAR/FAR 29 standards. In addition the cockpit features excellent pilot visibility and redundant flight systems for reduced workload. High main and tailrotor ground clearance provides added safety for the passengers and maintenance teams whilst on the ground. Hign installed power allows easy handling in all flight conditions.

SETTING THE BENCHMARK FOR SAR OPERATIONS

THE LARGEST CABIN IN ITS CLASS With the largest cabin in its class the AW139 delivers abundant working space and maximum mission flexibility to support cabin FLIR station operation, medical treatment and casualty evacuation requirements. Large sliding doors on each side provide clear access to the cabin. The cabin provides 8 cubic metres / 283 cubic feet for passengers and gear, plus an additional 3.4 cubic metres / 120 cubic feet of baggage compartment space that is accessible from outside the helicopter.
