The redesigned landing gear

Eurocopter and Hermès recently launched an exclusively new concept of business aviation, the l’Hélicoptère par Hermès, featuring an EC 135 light twin multi-mission helicopter, which was put at the able hands of renowned designers from the House of Hermès. With a spacious cabin, ample storage compartments, unobstructed flat floors, room for four passengers and pilot, lateral sliding doors, the helicopter was first donned with a minimalist yet striking exterior paint scheme.

Another cool contribution of Hermes would be the complete re-design of the helicopter’s landing gear in an efficient and elegant manner, hence easing access to the aircraft. You can expect this designer chopper to start taking off from 2008.
