New prototype by Airbus Helicopters

Some interesting changes in technology for Airbus Helicopters, particularly with respect to the blade design. Overall it looks like a sleak and aesethtically pleasing machine.

Must admit the H160 looks very pleasing to the eye, along similar lines to the 175.

Considering it's an Airbus, I'm very surprised that it doesn't seem to have fly-by-wire and side sticks.
