355F1

The 355F1 is part of the TwinStar/Écureuil family of light, multi-purpose helicopters. Manufactured by Airbus Helicopters, this model is recognized for its twin-engine safety and performance, making it a popular choice for corporate transport, aerial work, and law enforcement.

Airbus Helicopters traces its lineage back to Aérospatiale and DaimlerChrysler Aerospace, culminating in Eurocopter in 1992. The company became Airbus Helicopters in 2014, establishing itself as the global leader in the civil and parapublic helicopter market. This history of merger and innovation reflects a continuous commitment to producing versatile, reliable rotorcraft like the 355F1.

Servicing the 355F1 requires comprehensive access solutions for various critical areas. Modular platforms and service stands support maintenance access to the Nose Section (radome, avionics), Forward Fuselage (doors, lighting, ECS), and Landing Gear. Access to the Middle Fuselage, including fuel tanks and cabin interior, is achieved through specific elevated platforms. Finally, equipment like cantilever platforms and trestle scaffolds provide access to the Wing & Engine Pylon and the Tail Section (empennage) for detailed, methodical inspections. These access systems ensure thorough and efficient maintenance across all aircraft sections.
