EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vintage photograph, the sleek and innovative Brantly B-2B helicopter, identified by its registration number N2259U, is seen outside the Brantly Helicopter Company factory in Frederick, Oklahoma, in the year 1964. The Brantly B-2B was a significant advancement in helicopter technology during that era, known for its advanced design and exceptional performance. The helicopter's distinctive features include its compact size, with a length of only 28 feet and a height of 10 feet, making it highly maneuverable and ideal for various applications. The B-2B model was powered by a Lycoming O-360-A2A engine, capable of generating 180 horsepower, enabling the helicopter to reach impressive speeds of up to 115 miles per hour. The Brantly B-2B was designed with a unique coaxial rotor system, which provided superior stability and control, especially during hovering and takeoff and landing. This configuration also allowed for a larger and more spacious cabin, providing ample room for two passengers or cargo. The Brantly Helicopter Company, founded in 1949 by Floyd Brantly, was a pioneer in the helicopter industry, producing a range of models that catered to various markets, from agricultural applications to military use. The B-2B model, in particular, gained significant popularity due to its versatility and performance. This photograph captures a moment in history when the Brantly B-2B, represented by the registration number N2259U, was still a new and exciting addition to the world of helicopters. The image of the helicopter outside the Brantly factory in Frederick, Oklahoma, serves as a testament to the innovation and progress that characterized the helicopter industry during the 1960s.
