THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
This year the funds accumulated through corporate and hold sponsorship will allow for the restoration of the XH-59A
Better known as the “ABC” Advancing Blade Concept, incorporated a coaxial rotor system allowing for greater speed. This aircraft was designed and built in the late 70’s and flew in the early 80’s and reached speeds above 260 knots. It had two thrusting P&W J60-P-3A’s and a single P&W PT6T-3 turbo shafted engine. The counter-rotating rotors cancel out the desemitry of lift or the stalled are on each others blade affording great speed. The concept is alive and well in Sikorsky’s new “Raider” design.
