- The AW609 TiltRotor is a step change in performance, enabling fixed wing speeds, altitudes and ranges with vertical take-off and landing versatility of a helicopter. Find out more at www.leonardocompany.com/en/pr...

I’m glad they remembered Herb and Pietro by putting their names on the fuselage. RIP.
Poetry in motion, simply beautiful.😍
Finally, the cyberpunk future we were promised
Nice little thing to make into a lightweight naval AEW&C platform. Would be quite an addition to the 2 QEII carriers of the RN.
Belíssima aeronave!
Very advanced beautiful airplane 👍🏽 nice look . 😎
I am glad to see someone else follow America into making tilt rotor aircraft. I was starting to think they were an expensive boondoggle w/ no future. The civilian value of such aircraft might be tremendous.
The AW609 is about 50% American, as Bell was one of the two original companies that formed Bell/Agusta Aerospace Company (BAAC). AgustaWestland is owned by Finmeccanica which is now called Leonardo S.p.A. Leonardo did eventually buy out Bell's share in the project though as Bell saw a reduced potential market for tiltrotors, and Bell was also working on the V-280 tiltrotor with Lockheed Martin for the military.
and you were right to think so also its still true
@@jebise1126 Right about what,
that it's a boondoggle or that it has tremendous potential?
@@VictorLepanto boondoggle thing...
@@jebise1126 I can't agree w/ this, even if tilt rotors might be of limited military value (I only raise that possibility for rhetorical purposes), I think tilt-rotors will have great value commercially. Business men already often use helicopters to reach quicker aircraft at airports. The value of combining a helicopter function w/ that of an airplane is obvious.
One of the best air ambulance will be AW 609 very successful project .
Hope to see these in the sky... finally. I appreciate getting it certificated is no small task but how many years have V-22 Ospreys been operational?
AeroSpaceNews.com uh, almost 20 years from introduction to first flight....There’s absolutely no reason to rush this technology?
Fare la versione awacs per le miniportaerei
I love the background music, so what's the name of the band?
sounds like "God is an astronaut", but I'm not sure
I dream of having some land and a long-range version of one of these. When I want to go somewhere: to hell with traffic, airlines, security, and having to sit next to some morbidly obese person.
So what does a fixed-wing pilot need to do in order to transition to the AW-609 ?
Are any of your aircraft operating in the Philadelphia metropolitan area? I observed a tilt-rotor aircraft yesterday at fairly high altitude, and assumed it to be a V 22, however, the fuselage was too skinny and I got the impression of a swept back T-tail horizontal stabilizer. Very quiet compared to the Osprey.
Dear Leonardo Team, I am making a video on limitations on high speed flight for helicopters. Can I please use an extract of this video , obviously providing credit to you accordingly. The channel is ‘AB Helicopters Ltd’. Thank you in advance, Andrew
Max flight time?
Im wondering how the plane's flight characteristics might change if people move about inside. it would seem that the smaller the plane the more effect one or more people moving forward or aft might make in balance.
I hope it'll become available for passenger transport. It would definitely be a big blow against high speed rail.
What are the benefits weighed against such a limiting and maintenance heavy materiel?
Hi Leonardo Company... just curious, could it be possible for this AW609 to land on a MegaYacht Helipad safely ? and what is the maximum wind gust it could take for an easy landing ? Also, could the AW609 blades / wing be folded / stow such as the MV-22 Osprey for storage in the megayacht heli garage ? Make a video for it. If it could land on a megayacht, you'll have a big market potential tho. i'd love to see you guys make a video landing on a megayacht. Looking forward.
Once I win a lotto. I'll buy one and then enroll myself to a flight school.
Just hire a pilot and sit in back.

How much thought has gone in to making an aew variant for the Italian and royal navy? Surely fitting crowsnest wouldn't be difficult?
Simon Mugford never heard of an aew of this aircraft. Never even heard of a military version thus far to be honest.
See the V-280 Valor
Снимите турбины с крыла, поставьте гидромоторы на привод винтов. Гидронасос в фюзеляж к первичному двигателю.
can this still fly in case if one or both engines fail? can it land if rotor get somehow locked in forward-flight position?
If an engine fails both props are connected via a shaft. And if it is somehow locked up in forward position itll have to detour to an airport.
@@pomzilla7256 if its locked in forward it has to crashland on the airport cause the rotors goes lower than the fuselage no?
@@RureLyther It seems so. Although a belly landing in that configuration should be quite safe.
Why not use these Tilt-Rotors as
"Helicopter Airlines" for short hall intercity travel from Heliports very close to cities with short check-in times than airports!
Podrían usar turbinas en lugar de hélices ?
Can you imagine what kind of downwash there would be?😂 Small in area but very high speed compared to propellor downwash 😅
Music name?
You missed showing interesting part of its landing

That’s just a smaller version of the V 22 Osprey
You missed showing an important part -- the landing.
Modify the Sikorsky Raider by slowing the main rotor by 95% (instead of 15%) when at full speed and use the advancing blades as wings. Even more efficient than this and cheaper to build.
Except the raider is kinda shit it’s been an unreliable mess in testing
Is Augusta going to do a V-280 imitation as well, Oh their calling themselves Leonardo now?
Why don't you use turbines instead of propellers they are not more efficient and lighter ??🤔🤔🤔

This should have been made into a LEGO Technic set, not the V-22 Osprey.
A single engine over the fuselage would lighten the wings and remove so much weight,fuel lines,gears,complicated engines controls routed through the wing. It would look better and fly better.and much less expensive . and most likely more reliable
rothschild war bank If the engine fails? Those small ‘props’ don’t have the inertia to autorotate - they need power, hence the mechanical link.
Use the starting battery for engine out. Add a little gear to the starter. I think the twin version has no civilian market .ugly and wing heavy plane. Or put both engines over the fuselage like helicopters .
rothschild war bank This is for the cilia market. Clearly you know better than all the manufacturers who have designed developed and produced tilt rotor aircraft ALL with twin engines and ALL with engines on the end of the wing and ALL with a transfer driveshaft.... I expect them to be knocking on your door very soon to help them out.
@@3204clivesinclair according to wiki the aw 609 has completed power off autorotation test and passed,, not engine out test but all power off. 79 test and no accidents. I think the starter motor helping would be helpful . if they could reduce the mass of those giant 25 foot rotors and still have adequate autorotation ability ,the thing would look better. A single engine version ,6 seats will look good,,be almost affordable,make less noise.
@@rothschildwarbank4960 then it will be helicopters ?
and then it crashed..worthless
I guess since the Boeing 747 has crashed, they're worthless too?
You can't even spell worthless...
