VHA Featured in RotorHUB Sidebar
Van Horn Aviation’s tail and main rotor blade programs were highlighted in the June/July 2011 issue of RotorHUB magazine. While the feature story, titled “Spooling Up With a New Generation,” focused mainly on improvements to various classes of engines used in rotorcraft, it also contained a sidebar devoted to aftermarket composite rotor blades. The sidebar highlighted Carson Helicopters’ S-61 blades, Northwest Helicopters’ Huey main rotor blades (still in development), and VHA’s production Huey and 206 tail rotor blades plus our MD 500 main rotor blade program.
