The Robinson R66 Turbine
The Robinson R66 Turbine is a five-place helicopter that incorporates many of the design features of its reputable predecessor, the R44, including a two-bladed rotor system, T-bar cyclic and an open interior cabin configuration. The most notable differences are its increased reserve power and altitude performance, fifth seat and large baggage compartment. HID landing lights, leather seats, and a stereo audio control panel are standard in the R66.
The Robinson R66 offers two comfortable front seats separated by a central cyclic control, the famous Robinson T-bar design. The back seat is wide enough for three passengers.
The machine offers cargo space underneath the seats and in a spacious rear cargo compartment.
