GENERAL

The Mi-17 Helicopter is a twin turbine single rotor helicopter with anti-torque rotor. The fuselage is semi-monocoque, constructed primarily of aluminum alloys. Large rear ramp door and sliding door on port side increase internal loading options. Cowlings are provided on the upper part of the aircraft and when opened form a maintenance work platform. Emergency exits are provided through cockpit sliding doors, cockpit hatch, the windows in the cabin, rear cabin hatch and cabin door. The rotor drive system consists of the main gearbox, tail rotor drive shaft, intermediate and tail rotor gearboxes, blower drive shaft and the main rotor brake. The Mi-17 has a hydro-mechanical flight control system with dual redundant hydraulic supply. Engines are provided with a self-contained oil system and are started pneumatically using bleed air from the on-board auxiliary power unit.

 

 

The fuel system includes one service and two external fuel tanks. The pneumatic power system is used for braking the main landing. To protect against icing, the main rotor, tail rotor, two windshield panels in the pilots cabin, along with the dust-protection and engines intake are provided with anti-icers. The Mi-17 fire extinguishing system is used to detect fire sources and to put them out. The heating and ventilation systems ensure warm or cold air supply to the helicopter's cabins and provide normal temperature conditions. Oxygen equipment installed in the helicopter supplies oxygen to the crew members during high altitude flights.

 


 

The electrical system is powered by two AC independent driven generators. APU-driven generator provides emergency electrical power and power for ground maintenance. The battery provides ignition for starting the APU and limited power for lighting and radio use when the engines and APU are not operating.

FLYING HOSPITAL

The purpose of the "Flying Hospital" helicopter is to provide a wide range of medical treatment at the remote areas by way of either a field base or via facilities on-board the helicopter, which may also be used to transport trained rescue and emergency medical staff and injured person/s to and from the place of accident. The medical facilities installed in the "Flying Hospital" helicopter include three compartments with separate functions. In the forward compartment four stretchers are placed for transportation of injured persons. Removal of these stretchers allows for accommodation of eight sitting passengers (rescuers, medical personnel, evacuated injured etc.). The medical equipment provides continuous life support services for patients (including oxygen, air, vacuum, ventilation, patient monitoring, and defibrillation).



 



 

 The middle compartment is intended for surgical operations and contains an operation table, shadow-less lamps, and equipment for administering anesthetics, resuscitation, and diagnostic procedures. The medical team is able to work in comfortable conditions. The rear compartment houses the power supply units, and systems for medical gases including oxygen and nitrous oxide, along with other auxiliary units. The rear door enables loading/unloading of patients on stretchers, and equipment is installed for easy moving and lifting of injured persons. Use of special materials for walls and floor permits fast and effective disinfecting of the “Flying Hospital”. The level of medical-diagnostic equipment enables objective short-term assessment of the patients’ condition. In accordance with Customer's requirements, we are able to provide modification of the “Flying Hospital” helicopter with various other types of medical and rescue equipment.
