Dubai Helishow 2022 exhibits the best of helicopters

Dubai Helishow 2022 is the only international exhibition dedicated to the helicopter and the aviation industry in the Middle East. It took place over three days between 24th-26th October in Dubai Harbour and the exhibition was crowned with the participation of Mohammed Bin Rashid Aerospace Hub.

This is the ninth edition of the Dubai Helishow, where companies showcased their latest technological innovations for helicopters and drones, including simulators, engine Manufacturers, Thermal Imaging Cameras/Night Vision, and satellite Communications/Tracking, among many other things.

Zephir, an Italian-based company, introduced the visitors to the world’s first two-seater helicopter with a built-in parachute. The helicopter is designed from scratch with an innovative ballistic parachute rescue system, crash-worthy seats, and landing gear. In case of a mishap, the helicopter’s blades stop rotating to enable the parachute to deploy cleanly and allow for a safer landing. Built entirely out of carbon fibre, the Zephir helicopter weighs just over 70kgs.
