The maiden flight of the light twin-engine Bo 105 helicopter took place on February 16th 1967 at the Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm airfield in Ottobrunn near Munich. The prototype took to the air with a new hingeless four-blade hub and composite blades, the key innovation of the project. The Bo 105 became the first production helicopter with a rigid rotor and one of the first light twin-engine helicopters. Its design guaranteed reliability and durability, and thanks to it, the Bo 105 could perform aerobatic maneuvers and found wide application in both military and civilian service.
