Combining a lightweight design with the ability to be deflated and collapsed quickly for easy stowage, our intake covers have been chosen for the EH101 Merlin Helicopter.
The non-metallic, light materials used for construction means that damage is minimised if the covers are ingested or blown across the deck or airfield into other aircraft or personnel.
