The team at Aero Design plans to proudly display the prototype new addition to its AS350/AS355 fleet of cargo baskets in booth N3336 at HAI Heli-Expo 2018 in Las Vegas, Nev.
Aero Design strives to expand its list of products to ensure safe and simple solutions through cooperation in all areas of the utility helicopter industry and beyond. This tradition continues with the introduction of the prototype Mega profile basket for the Airbus AS350 and Airbus AS355. Developed with support from the industry, fire bucket manufacturers and Environment Canada, this basket promises safe loading, unloading and transportation of large valve fire buckets, water survey equipment and other oversize items which are typically difficult to fit in a regular basket.
The Mega Profile basket will utilize Aero Design’s industry-leading Aero Design Quick Release System and, as always, allows for the installation of the complete line of quick release fixtures, including any one of the cargo basket models, bicycle rack, step or a mix thereof in less time than it takes perform a weight and balance amendment.
Aero Design president and Canadian M1/M2 aircraft maintenance engineer Jason Rekve says, “This is one of many things we have on the go and Jeff and I look forward to sharing it and many other conversations in our booth: N3336.”
