BK117 livery CN 7017 COLANI'S SPACESHIP - EXCLUSIVE TO X-PILOT.COM

Repaint for Nils Danielsson's excellent payware MBB BK-117.

Simply unzip the file "COLANI'S SPACESHIP" into your xplane/aircraft/helicopters/bk117/liveries folder.

In the early days of the BK117, MBB contracted well-known designers of the day to create eye-catching designs to highlight and advertise the BK117 at various trade fairs and airshows. In 1986 taking the BK117's sales slogan of Space ship (the ship with roominess), Luigi Colani created his now-famous livery, "Colani's Spaceship," to coincide with Halley's Comet which was visible that year.

The aircraft was exhibited at the Farnborough Airshow from 2nd-9th September 1984 in its factory paint, and as Colani's Spaceship from 31st August to 7th September 1986, before the aircraft was sold and the livery lost for good.

Of note, before Colani painted it, 7017's first role was as testbed for High Temperature Tests, carried out in Khartoum from May 1st to 12th 1983.

Simply unzip the file "CN 7002 Dare Spare" into your xplane/aircraft/helicopters/bk117/liveries folder.

This is the livery of 7002, the second BK117 made. From 24th February-3rd March 1983 MBB used 7002 to perform further flight tests in order to improve the flight envelope of the BK117. The extreme elevation of Leadville airfield (9,927 ft or 3,025 m) in Colorado was perfect to prove hover flight in and out of ground effect (HIGE, HOGE) up to 11,000 ft.

This livery shows the aircraft from July 1989 when it was pressed into service for Dare Medflight out of Dare County Regional Airport, North Carolina.

The aircraft was being used by Dare Medflight after the crash of their original BK-117.

It is currently one of the Stars medevac fleet.

Thanks but a ) I like helis (esp the BK117) and b ) I'm aiming to get all the historical paints done. Putting a livery up which disappeared years ago makes it all worthwhile.

BK117 livery A-3 CN 7045 D-HMBD - EXCLUSIVE TO X-PILOT.COM

Repaint for Nils Danielsson's excellent payware MBB BK-117.

Simply unzip the file "CN 7045 D-HMBD" into your xplane/aircraft/helicopters/bk117/liveries folder.

This is the livery of 7045, a testbed aircraft retained by Eurocopter for development and ongoing testing. In November 1987 it became the first BK117 to be constructed out of fibre compound material.

In 1998 it was fitted with the cockpit structure of the EC135, thus forming the basis for the EC145/BK117 C-2. This was known as the BK117 Futura.

In July 2002 a "smart rotor system" with controllable flaps was fitted, and in September 2005 an electrical flap control system was trialled; the aim being to reduce overall noise levels.

The livery shown here represents its time in 1996 when it was shown with a HeliRadar which was intended to permit operations at night and in bad weather, hence the title All Weather Rescue Helicopter.
