ETL Aviation’s New Helicopter Tug
At the time of this writing, we have not given the tug a name, but are considering many options. If you have a suggestion, let us know at info@etlavation.com. Some information about the tug is below.
Make: Tug
Model: MA70
Engine: Ford 6 cylinder
Fuel: Propane
The new may be overkill for moving our helicopter around, but it much better than the lawn tractor that we used before.

FAA Legal Interpretation on Instrument training for Commercial Helicopter Rating
FAA issues legal interpretation that clarifies that instrument training for commercial rating must be completed in a helicopter or helicopter simulator.
This legal interpretation clarifies that if the training occurs in a helicopter, or with a device or simulator that replicates a helicopter, that training may count towards the five hours of instrument aeronautical experience required under 14 CFR 61.129(c)(3)(i). However, instrument training performed outside of a helicopter and without a flight simulator, flight training device, or aviation training device that replicates a helicopter cannot count towards the five hours of instrument aeronautical experience that is required under 14 CFR 61.129(c)(3)(i).
