Red Bull Helicopter

There are othe so-called aerobatic helicopter acts out there, but nothing like the Messerschmitt-Boelkow-Biohm Bo-105. In the hands of the right pilot, it loops, rolls does vertical rolls, and flips.

Unlike other helicopter, this one is built with a rigid rotor and rigid mounted main transmission, both of which are bolted onto the airframe so that the machine handles like a sports car, without slop or slack in the control stick to the left, the Red Bull Bo-105 rolls all the way around, without the rotor tilting or bending.

Aaron is fairly new to the airshow circuitr. This will be the second season he filies aerobatic shows in the Red Bull Helicopter, but he has more than 17,000 hours of helicopter fight times. He has done flighting testing with infrared night-vision equipment, cropdusting, flight instruction, film flying aerial photography, heavy sling work, cattle herding, traffic reporting banner towing- nearly any job a helicopter pilot can do.
