#TBT Throwback Thursday – Why Is Weight and Balance So Important in a Helicopter?

While HTV is busy working on new content, check out some of our old videos from a few years back. This Helicopter Weight and Balance Management video was first published back in October 2012.

The video explains Helicopter Weight and Balance Management, applied to a Robinson R22 Helicopter. This video discusses the implications and risks of being close to or exceeding weight and balance limitations and the ways to reduce/mitigate risks associated with approaching/exceeding such limitations.
