DESCRIPTION OF THE HELICOPTERThe EC 135 is a light twin-engined multi-purpose Helicopter with five seats in the basicversion and optional seat arrangements for up to eight pilot s seat is on the RH :The EC 135 P2+ is powered by two Pratt & Whitney PW 206 B2 or PW 206 B2 VR (VaneRematch modification) engines, both with digital engine control (FADEC) the FLM the term PW 206 B2 VR engine is not information, limitations, procedures and performance data mentioned for thePratt & Whitney PW 206 B2 engine, remain valid for the PW 206 B2 is also possible to operate one PW 206 B2 and PW 206 B2 VR engine at thesame time on a EC 135 P2+ without any restriction.

6 The twin-engine reliability is enhanced by a fully-separated fuel system, a dual hydraulic sys-tem, a dual electrical system and a redundant lubrication system for the main :The main transmission is a two-stage flat design gearbox, with anti-resonance rotor isolationsystem (ARIS).Main rotor:The Helicopter is equipped with a four-bladed bearingless main rotor (BMR). The inboardflexbeam enables movement of the blades in all axes. Blade pitch angles are controlledthrough integrated glass/carbon fibre control main rotor control linkage system is of conventional design. The hydraulic system forthe main rotor controls is designed as a duplex system with tandem piston (both systemsare active). In case of a failure of one system, the remaining system has sufficient powerto ensure safe flight operation and a safe system:The Helicopter is equipped with a Fenestron-type antitorque system, having a tail rotorwith 10 blades.

7 The Fenestron is controlled via a Flexball type cable, routed from thepedals to the input control lever of the :The primary structure consists mainly of sheet metal design. Cabin frame, bottom shell,doors, engine cowling and nose access panel are made of composite cabin is accessible through six doors: two hinged doors for the front occupants, two slid-ing doors for the rear passengers, and two aft clamshell doors for the rear boom:The tail boom can be separated from the fuselage, and consists of the horizontal tail planewith end-plates, vertical fin with integrated tail rotor, tail rotor gearbox and MANUAL EC 135 P2+General1 - 4 EASA APPROVEDRev. 0 Fuel tanks:The fuel system comprises two fuel tanks, a fuel supply system, a refueling and groundingequipment and a monitoring system.

8 The main tank and supply tank with overflow to themain tank and sufficient separated quantity for 20 minutes flight in OEI condition are installedunder the cabin system:The fully redundant electrical 28 V DC system is supplied by two generators and the gear:The EC 135 has two cross tubes and two DIMENSIONSFig. 1-1 shows a three-view drawing of the Helicopter with its principal dimensions. Forcabin dimensions see Fig. on and within the Helicopter can be determined in relation to fuselage stations( or STA.), waterlines ( ), and buttock lines ( ), measured in millimeters fromknown reference points (see SECTION 6 Mass and Balance ).FLIGHT MANUAL EC 135 P2+General1 - 5 EASA APPROVEDRev.
