Helio Courier: The King of STOL Airplanes
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 жов 2024
- The Helio Courier is a brute of a STOL plane with a very rich history, dating back to the post-war era. Loved by both military and civilian operators, the Courier required a skillful pilot to master, but in the hands of an experienced aviator, could perform magic on runways and in the air.
Now approaching nearly 75 years since its birth, the Courier is slowly becoming a relic and sadly, its numbers are dwindling. One devoted aviation group in Alaska is working hard to change that!

Learn about JAARS and their noble mission, and how the Courier allowed them to operate where no other plane could:

Also shout out to Mike Mower from JAARS with a lot of great information about the Helio. Fewer guys know it inside and out!

...NOTHING TO SEE HERE BUT AWSOMENESS...LOVE THE HISTORY LESSONS...👍
Thank you!
It doesn’t defy physics. It merely using great engineering to leverage physics to the hilt.
Agree. Just some good ol hyperbole, lol
Hopefully it can be brought back into production at cost that makes it accessible it individuals and small operators
I'm with you!
There is 2 outfits starting production. One for the Stallion and one for the Piston.
I'm aware of the piston...but not the Stallion! Man I wish them both luck, would be great to see both flying together at Osh one day
