The Swift 620SE canopy is even smaller then a Raven 50 canopy. So it would be far too small to fit the 20 gasser, which is even bigger. The one in the pictures of the 20 gasser, looks to be the same as the bigger one from the NX50 prototype.

This canopy is the same shape as that of the 620SE, but is much larger and would probably easily fit on the 20 gasser.

The smaller 620SE canopy is also made from fiberglass, while the larger NX50 canopy is made from the same rather indestructable plastic that the Hawk/Raven canopy is made from.

Personally, I love the new shape. I aways liked the Hawk/Raven canopy shape, but I must admit that it is getting a little dated now.

Most such prototypes that most any manufacturer (including Century) have ever premiered at the first show of the season (the AMA show) almost never hits the store shelves until late fall for Christmas sales...so I would guess this one will be similar.

i believe Century likes to release a quality product out of the box the first time, and not have so many upgrades and fixes 5 months later that you can build an entire heli from those alone.

hello !!

century is very serious , it's true .
century' helicopters fly very well and are not so expensive .

but it's very long to have the newest helicopter ...

...it's not cool

.

century show us the 50 gasser and no more information about a realised date ....why ??? it's like showing a toy to a child and not said when he could have one

...

as every pilote are "little child" , century must said when the 50 gasser will be in the shop

...

i'm sure you think like me !!!

..

so century , please , give us more information

.

bye and have good fly !!

From what i have read in the past, Century learned from that mistake.

in the past, they had pulled off an 'Aurora'. giving people info and updates on a regualr basis, almost teasing. but then, for what ever reason, there are delays. Because of those delay's, people get upset, and angry.

It will be done when its done. We all know that these helicopters are not myths, and we know they are working on them.

im sure how ever long it takes, it will be well worth the wait
