Watch "D-HUDM" the Media Helicopter of The Flying Bulls take-off from Salzburg Airport in Austria inbound for a video production.
The BO 105 S (the “S” stands for ‘stretched’) underwent several modifications and received, for example, different main rotor blades to reduce vibrations. As a result, the loading capacity increased by around 150 kg and the useful load by around 130 kg. The take-off weight of 2,500 kg in external loads was increased by 100 kg in the longer version of the BO. The climb rate was increased by 1.6 m/s and the cruise speed by 15 km/h.
Just like the shorter models, the BO 105 S has a Rolls-Royce/Allison twin-engine and a total of 810 horsepower. It reaches 220 km/h (120 kts) and a height of 5,120 meters (16.800 ft). At 8,81 meters the BO 105, registered D-HUDM, is 24.4 cm (10 inches) longer than its fully aerobatic twin sisters - a little extra space that benefits passengers in the back seats.
The BO 105 S is used as media helicopter for Austrian TV channel Servus TV and is called into action whenever aerial shots are needed at an event. The long cabin offers plenty of room for film and TV recording equipment. With a camera system from the company "Shotover" from New Zealand on a camera boom - a "tripod" - which is attached to the skids, the coveted aerial shots are created, perfected by the flying precision of the Flying Bulls pilots.
500 of the 1,400 BO 105 models left the factory halls in Manching and Donauwörth labeled “CBS”, a long version for clients who, according to Bavarian standards, enjoy a “little bit extra”.
