PISTON AFFORDABILITY
The 300 series helicopters
are the ultimate in affordability!
Proven piston power gives smaller news stations the ability
to have an aerial platform. The advancement in camera technology allows the 300 series helicopters
to carry gimbal mounted systems in the most affordable package. The 300 series helicopters are regarded as the best piston powered helicopters for training
and light utility on the market today. With Schweizer Aircraft Corporation's proven record for reliability and safety, you can't go wrong. The Schweizer models
300C and 300CB/300CBi are available from Chesapeake Bay Helicopters, Inc., and give you the most versatility for your dollar in a piston powered machine.
The Schweizer 300CB/300CBi
was developed from the 300C.
It has all the built-in
safety features of all Schweizer helicopters but is the most
cost-effective aerial platform.
Whether you are using a handheld system or an exterior gimbal
mounted camera system, the 300CB/300CBi provides a stable aerial
platform with its three-bladed rotor system. The 300CB/300CBi
is limited by its useful load and seating capacity (2) but can
be configured for an exterior mounted gimbal system within some
limitations.
The 300CB/300CBi is also an outstanding platform for
a handheld camera. The 300CB, like the 300C, is the widest helicopter in its class. The
300 series helicopters provide the same great safety features found on
the 333 in a smaller more cost-effective package.
The 300C model has all the same great features found
on all Schweizer products.It is a bit more versatile than the 300CB/300CBi. Its higher useful load (950
lbs.) allows for more versatility for utility operations and additional equipment.
We recommend the use of the 300C for carrying heavy broadcast equipment.
The 300 series helicopters are the safest piston powered helicopters
available
to consumers. According to NTSB reports the 300 series helicopters are the safest
piston helicopters in the world. They have been proven. The military has used
the 300 series, also known as the 269 and TH-55, for use as trainers and light
utility aircraft for decades. As with all Schweizer products, there are no special
FAA safety restrictions on these aircraft. That says a lot. Schweizer Aircraft
Corporation has designed these aircraft to perform high above standard requirements.
These aircraft had to be designed and built to withstand the stringent standards
for military and police use. The 300 series helicopters are proven for ENG. Other
news agencies and 171 law enforcement across the country are using the 300 series
helicopters as aerial platforms because of their proven reliability, safety,
and stable platforms in a cost-effective package.
A picture says a
thousand words. If the picture is what is important to you, then the 300 series
helicopters are effective platforms. The Schweizer models 300C and 300CB/300CBi
are able to provide you with the same great aerial images achieved with higher
priced helicopters(and even better), but at about one-half to one-third of the
cost. Schweizer's piston powered helicopters allow you to do more with your helicopter
as a aerial platform.
Chesapeake Bay Helicopters, Inc., is committed to putting together a
package
that works for you. We provide the 300 series, the 333 turbine, the Bell JetRanger,
and other aircraft in order to meet your needs. The 300 series provides a stable
platform for your camera system without the flash or glitz of larger aircraft.
This allows you to fly your helicopter more. The more you fly, the more pictures
you can get and the more people see you flying. If you can not get the use and
exposure you want from your helicopter because it is not cost effective, then
there is really no point in having it. That is why we will tailor a package that
is specifically designed to meet your needs. We can arrange a flight in the 300
series or visit the factory to see the 333 turbine!. Whether it is piston power
or turbine performance, Chesapeake Bay Helicopters, Inc. can make it happen for
you. We are a full service helicopter company. We provide the support of the
factory to your station.
If your station is in the market for a news helicopter, or you have a
current contract coming due, let us show you how you can have the best of both
worlds,
flying and affordability, in the 300 series, 333 turbine, JetRanger or other!
