AW139 Offshore 2 SIMPLY NO RIVALS Photo by Ned Dawson PERFORMING WORLDWIDE The AW139 is the market-leading intermediate twin-engine helicopter. Ideally suited to demanding Offshore missions, with superior speed, range and single engine capability together with excellent handling characteristics. Compliant with the most stringent industry guidelines the AW139 is capable of carrying up to 15 passengers in comfort and safety. AW139 is the flagship of the AgustaWestland ‘Family’ of products (with AW169 and AW189), providing mixed-fleet operators the advantage of a common design-philosophy across platforms. SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE IN ALL CONDITIONS The AW139 provides Offshore operators best-in-class performance with a cruise speed of 165 knots / 306 kph, a max range of 675 nm / 1250 km, endurance up to 6 hours and superior Hover performance. The AW139’s exceptional OEI capability brings added confidence during rapid deployment of personnel. With its power reserve, the AW139 assures Category “A” (Class 1) superior performance from a helipad (elevated or at ground level) at maximum take-off weight. Excellent performance is granted for operations worldwide, even in extreme hot-and-high environments or harsh conditions. Full Ice Protection System (FIPS) is available for flying in known ice conditions. NEW TECHNOLOGY FOR OPTIMUM CAPABILITY State-of-the-art avionics and large displays, together with the 4-axis digital autopilot with hover mode and full digital electronic engine control (FADEC) minimise pilot workload and optimise operational efficiency. The AW139’s ergonomic design, excellent handling characteristics and low vibration levels minimise pilot fatigue and enhance passenger comfort. SAFETY BUILT-IN Engineered to the highest safety standards the AW139 is constructed with energy-absorbing landing gear, fuselage and seats to meet the rigorous JAR / FAR 29 standards. In addition, the cockpit features excellent pilot visibility and redundant flight systems for reduced workload. Modern Health Usage Monitoring Systems (HUMS) diagnostic tools are available to maximise aircraft safety and minimise time on the ground. High main and tail rotor ground clearance ensures a safe environment for ground operations and maintenance crew. LARGEST CABIN IN ITS CLASS AW139’s large, brightly lit, versatile cabin (8 m3 / 283 ft3) can be configured in a variety of layouts, with accommodation for up to 15 passengers (dependent on specific operator requirements) with large sliding doors for ease of entry / egress. An additional 3.4 m3 / 120 ft3 baggage compartment space is accessible from outside the helicopter. Cabin length 2.70 m 8 ft 10 in Cabin width 2.10 m 6 ft 11 in Cabin height 1.42 m 4 ft 8 in 4 WORLWIDE SUPPORT AW139 is designed to maximise operational capability and minimise cost. Maintenance operations have been minimized by design, as have components subject to overhaul and replacement; reducing downtime for flight-intensive Offshore schedules. A worldwide network of service and support centres is already serving the Offshore industry, worldwide. Four full Level-D flight simulators are available for pilot training and maximised safety. 6 AW139 OFFSHORE CHARACTERISTICS Dimensions Overall length (1) 16.66 m 54 ft 8 in Overall height (1) 4.98 m 16 ft 4 in Rotor diameter 13.8 m 45 ft 3 in Propulsion Powerplant (2) Pratt & Witney PT6C-67C Turboshafts with FADEC Engine Ratings AEO Take off power 2 x 1,252 kW 2 x 1,679 shp OEI 2.5 min contingency power 1,396 kW 1,872 shp Weights (MTOW) Max ramp weight 6,450 kg 14,219 lb Internal load (2) 6,400/6,800 kg 14,110/14,991 lb External Load 6,800 kg 14,991 lb Typical mission equipped weight 4,400 kg 9,700 lb Capacity Crew 1-2 Passenger seating Up to 15 Stretchers 4 stretchers (up to 5 attendants) Baggage compartment 3.4 m 3 120 ft 3 Performance (ISA, S.L., MTOW) VNE (IAS) 310 km/h 167 kt Cruise Speed 306 km/h 165 kt Max Rate of Climb 10.9 m/s 2,140 ft/min HOGE 2,478 m 8,130 ft Service Ceiling 6,096 m 20,000 ft OEI service ceiling 3,536 m 11,600 ft VTOL cat.
