MD 600N
The MD 600N is an eight-seat, light, single-engine turbine helicopter that provides high performance and increased capacity to give the customer greater versatility. The aircraft has a lower operating cost and more capacity than its competitors. It flies faster, hovers higher, and provides the agility and exceptional handling. The MD 600 N is one of the most advanced, safest, and quietest helicopters in the world.
The aircraft is equipped with a NOTAR tail boom. NOTAR is the name of an anti-torque system which replaces the use of a tail rotor. The system uses a fan inside the tail-boom to build a high volume of low-pressure air, which exits through two slots and creates a boundary layer flow of air along the tail-boom, creating thrust opposite the motion imparted to the fuselage by the torque effect of the main rotor. Directional yaw control is gained through vented, rotating drum at the end of the tail-boom. The NOTAR offers quieter and safer operations with the advantage of no tail rotor obstacle.
