(4K) Agusta Westland AW609 Tiltrotor N609PH flying display at Jesolo AirShow 2022 Italy 

Never knew this was in development! Beautiful aircraft, great demo and fantastic video! Thanks!,

One giant advancement for the future of tiltrotor type of VTOL... The acrobatic style turns here are for landing and for demonstration purposes only... Yet the technology and its abilities are amazing...

she's beautiful , now maybe A.W. can catch up ! Interesting sound and amazing manoeverability ! A big THANKS for sharing .

Great catch! This is a super rare flying marvel! Keep it up 👍

Great to see! Nice looking aircraft. Still terrifying that certain vortex ring conditions can be entered that are non recoverable. But then, helicopters have been flying for many decades and mostky avoid this too. Tilt rotors certainly seem to have a big role to play in developing different technologies and offering alternatives to conventional airframes and helicopters. I can see a flying doctor service in certain remote parts of the world, perhaps utilising the high speed in and out to the scene, but able to land in restricted areas as with a much slower helicopter. What an amazing world we can make it if we try hard!

This aeroplane is suitable for Nepal and Bhutan.. ❤❤❤❤❤

amazing display from this tiltrotor plane.Super video

Awesome!

Amazing display and very good camera work, i'd like to see the some private AW609s, i hope they will get the license

WOW 😍😍😍😍

Incredible and cool 😊

amazing 👏

Awesome catch!

what a rare catch! great stuff!

Cool anzusehen, großartige Aufnahmen 👍🖖🔝

that is pretty cool to watch

Excellent video. This is the first time i have seen a video of a tilt rotor converting between fixed wing to rotary wing mode and then back again.

A very impressive display

Great Catch

Spectecular plane spotting video buddy. Really nice 😍👍

Very nice 👍

Nice video!👏🚁

*_SWEET!_*

Nice presentation...👏🏽

Just friggen rad. 👍🏻

This is the future of luxury air travel

Awesome to see! But, the biggest risk that remains with this design is asymmetrical vortex ring state. Many a V22 met its demise through this. Not an aerodynamically solvable problem. Early warning systems probably has the best chance to mitigate this.

good video😊

damn what a beast

Sleek looking aircraft 👌

Way to go, Bell

oh god i want one

Gotta admit thats some next level 21st century shtuf

🏴‍☠BLACK BARON🏴‍☠ Excellent Gyro Flight Controller Development 👍

I cannot wait until these are being bought by private operators, they seems like they have very good potential and are safer than most tiltrotors

We worked on a mock up of this aircraft at Bell helicopter in 97. It was just the D-609,.

Impressive and low noise aircraft

As a former AW employee this always seemed to be an Italian vanity project, taken over after Bell pulled out - so, so complex mechanically, super-expensive to build, maintain and fly and only a minimal load-carrying capability; in fact, a solution looking for a problem!

대단한 기술의 회사

👍👍👍👍👍❤

Looks extremely pitch sensitve!! Just as long as I'm not required to get in one, I'm really good!!

What happens in the event of an engine failure? Is there a connecting drive shaft?

☺️😉👍👍👍

Was für ein interessantes Fluggerät! Könnte das Baby der Osprey sein! Daumen hoch Frank ;)

*_Sehr Fein, wo hast den den aufgetrieben. Tolles Teil_*

I had no idea that there was a civilian VTOL! I thought it was just the Osprey.

I wonder if there’s a firefighting application for the tilt rotor. How much weight can they lift?

I remember flying this in a sim 18 years ago. That sim was x-plane

What if the tilt system fails, jamming in the "fast forward" position?

I've always wondered is there a mechanical crank to tilt in case of a failure.

This would seem to be a police force’s answer to Demon Hellcats and such.

It looks very oldschool, like 1970s

Fabulous although I am trying as a twin piston rated pilot what the hell one would do for single engine failure

The only people owning or flying that aircraft are the ones that worked on designing it.

It must be exciting to pilot right in the middle of 2 rapidly rotating propellers.

How is it any different from the Osprey?

HATS-OFF to GREAT ENGINEERS at WORK to create a HELO-PLANE for potential MASS PRODUCTION for PROFIT!

GR8 machine! Any comment about if a Tilt rotor or ConvertiPlane (Pat US2708081; F A Dobson, 1954) would do better with engine inside fuselage, propellers moved through shafts and gears? Blessings +

هذه طائرة جيدة

Its like a drone

sad thing is v22 problems are going to affect the perception of this thing's reliability no matter how different it is

Just well tested on an italian aircarrier

ITS A WINNER!

Making the Titanic look safe. No way I'm ever getting in that death trap

Looks like a civilized version of a V22 Osprey. But there is still a problem. She doesn't have any approval (yet). This makes it difficult to sell since it also has a steep price.

The aircraft comes from the American Bell 609 and Bell XV-15

I wonder, how they anticipate if one engine failure?? how big assymetry thrust to compensate

Do you need a heli license or a plane license for this? Probably both right?

Just a thought when you're so close to the aircraft with your lens you don't have any reference points you can't tell if it's coming or going and your not the only content creator doing the same thing if it's a cloud less day go further back and give us the ground with the aircraft it would be so much better.the best part is when it's coming in for a pass, then we have a sense of speed.

so in next 15 years will it finally enter serial production?

If it's anything like the Osprey you couldn't pay me to fly on that aircraft, so many accidents with this type of propulsion design.

Like1

great engineering and performance but tilt motors have a reliability problem.

They are cool !!! But it’s a lot of extra moving parts !! Will be great for medical transportation!

Hopefully it goes better than the Osprey

With the problems the V22 is having will it effect the sales of this aircraft

I wonder how much it costs? I want it. It's definitely not possible, I'm poor.

Is safe?

Widowmaker.

I hope it’s more successful than the Osprey.

20 yrs since it was born as BA609, still none comes out of the production line.

That is V22 osprey for rich people.

Apparently, it is unable to land.

Having flown in an MV-22 Osprey dozens of times...That's gonna be a "no" from me dawg.

Don't want arm's from u ...u blacklisted here💔

A poor man's HARRIER for RICH PEOPLE ONLY!

Beautiful but I assume super duper unsafe.

Bird hunter

Although probably no safer than a helicopter in vertical lift scenarios when something malfunctions, if there’s a mishap during horizontal flight, this is a much more survivable aircraft. It can glide somewhat or even fly to relative safety depending on the situation. Helicopters, on the other hand, have been a death trap for so many poor souls, even right up to now. I feel like I read about another helicopter crash every few months. If anything goes wrong in a helicopter, it’s falling like a spinning brick while the pilots fight in vain to put it into the theoretical autorotation they were promised in flight school. Multirotor craft are the future…at least until we’re allowed to know about antigravity tech. 🕵️‍♂️

Lots of Pierre Sprey pretenders and armchair aviation designers getting triggered here in the comments rn fr fr

Death trap

Cannot really glide, cannot really autorotate, one slip and you are dead :)

Tilt rotors will likely never become a success, no true benefit, too fuel inefficient and too maintenance intensive, plus very high operation costs! But most of all there massive larger requirements for t/o and landing space compared to a helicopter and their limited benefit of faster cruise speed, considering the constantly increasing cruise speed of modern helicopters!

This has already been done! It's a waste of fukin time!!!!!

Dangerous flight....

25 June 2024 First landing on the Italian aircraft carrier CAVOUR for the AW-609 convertiplane

Sometimes having the ground in a shot helps: so do wide shots.

Designed and developed in America… it is also made in the USA 😂😂😂
