Now with extra blades...


You know how razors are better with extra blades? Apparently, so are helicopters. At Sikorsky, they've been planning on a revolutionary coaxial blade arrangement for a while. The first test flight the other day was a big success. The final product is a helicopter that is expected to travel at close to 300 MPH.
