The control surface on the tail
As with the wing shapes, aircraft tails are inspired by different types of bird tails.
The main function of the horizontal tail empennage is to stabilise the aircraft creating opposite forces which provide lift. It’s also essential to control the pitch axis of the aeroplane.
All aircraft tail types in charge of these functions and each one of them provides characteristics and benefits adapted to the type of flight they were built for.
A unique technology!
Zefhir is the first helicopter in the world to be fitted with an innovative ballistic parachute rescue system.
Installed above the main rotor, the parachute is designed as a backup for conditions where autorotation cannot be performed, such as:
flight control failure or loss of maneuverability;
flying over an area where emergency landing cannot be performed safely;
flight conditions that prevent restoring rotor rotation speed.
The system was successfully tested for the first time in aviation history at Oristano-Fenosu Airport in June 2018.
