The Sikorsky S-92 Helibus Civil Transport
A derivative of the US Army Black Hawk and the US Navy Sea Hawk, the S-92 will fulfil a variety of commercial and utility needs, including passenger transport, cargo, aeromedical, search and rescue and resource development support.
The performance and design goals that were originally set out for the S-92 have been achieved:
Transport 19 passengers 400 nm plus reserves
Provide military and civil operators with a true S-61 replacement
Substantial reduction in operating costs
Incorporation of offshore safety features
Low maintenance and high reliability |
With the best performance in its weight class, a low purchase price, a roomy interior and noise suppression, the S-92 has an exciting time ahead. The aircraft first flew in December 1998 and FAA Type Certification was achieved in December 2002.
