Wire Strike Protection System (WSPS®)
Protects helicopters in the event of flight into horizontally strung mechanical, electrical transmission and communication wires/cables. Designed to reduce the possibility of wires entering into the cockpit area, reduces the possibility of flight control damage during a wire strike and decreases the possibility of wires becoming entangled in landing gear.
Skid Gear Kits & Components
Replaces high and low skid gear and component needs for Bell light and medium helicopters. Individual Skid Gear Kits and components are now available for Bell 205, 206, 212, 407, 412, UH-1H, OH-58 and Eurocopter AS 350 and 355 helicopters.
Carbide Technology Skid Shoes
Tungsten Carbide Pads are bound to the bottom of new or existing helicopter skid shoes, through a patented process, which can repair shoes or extend their life – saving customer’s money.
Ground Handling Equipment
Hydraulic and Mechanical Ground Handling Wheels
Designed to make the repositioning of helicopters an easier task, the dual wheels reduce twisting and strain on skid tubes. These wheels also provide equal pressure on both sides of tubes while raising and lowering aircraft.
Manual and Powered Towing Systems
Designed for a one-man operation, these towing systems are simple to use and do not interfere with equipment mounted under helicopters. The caster wheel assembly can be used separate from the tow bar. The tow bar can also be attached to most towing vehicles.
Inlet Barrier Filtration Systems by Aerospace Filtration Systems
Designed to filter out more than 99 percent of dirt and sand that can wreak havoc on helicopter engines. This is an easily installed, single-filter system and contributes to reduced maintenance costs and down time. FAA STC/PMA approved for use on Bell 407 and 206L/L3/L4 helicopters.
External Rescue Hoist Kits
Designed for maximum safety, utility and ease of installation/operation. The Breeze Eastern or Goodrich hoist kits for the Bell 205, 206A, B and L Series, 212, 407, 412 and UH-1H helicopters can be easily adjusted for generous cable/skid tube clearance for low and high skid gear configurations.
