D-HALW Robinson R22 Beta II c/n 3316 - Air Lloyd - Flugplatz Bonn-Hangelar in Germany - 10 August 2019 Air Lloyd helicopters

The Robinson R22 Beta II is a two-seat small rotorcraft powered by a single Lycoming O-360-B2C four-cylinder, air-cooled piston engine. The R22 was designed by the founder of the Robinson Helicopter Company, Frank Robinson. Design of the Robinson R22 helicopter began in 1973, and an 85kW (115hp) Lycoming O235 powered prototype flew for the first time on 28 August 1975. A second followed in early 1977. The FAA certification (TCDS H10WE) was achieved on 16 March 1979 and deliveries started in October of that year. On 12 October 1983, the R22 Alpha model was ceritified. On 5 August 1985, the R22 Beta model was certified, followed by the R22 Mariner model on 12 September 1985. The R22 Beta had a larger oil cooler and associated installation changes were made to permit the 131 hp. takeoff rating with the O-320 engine. In 1995, the R22 Beta model, with the Lycoming O-360-J2A engine installed, entered production. This engine is installed on s/n 2571 and subsequent in production. R22 Beta II is used as marketing designation for the R22 Beta with O-360-J2A engine installed. Over 4600 Robinson R22 helicopters are delivered to customers all over the world.
The ICAO Aircraft Type Designator for the Robinson R22 Beta is R22.

In May 2002, Robinson R22 Beta II s/n 3316 was seen first as D-HALW at the ILA - Berlin Air Show 2002. In June 2002, the helicopter was registered D-HALW in Germany with Air Lloyd Deutsche Helicopter GmbH, Flugplatz Bonn-Hangelar, St. Augustin. On 10 August 2019, the 2002-built Robinson R22 Beta II D-HALW was seen at Flugplatz Bonn-Hangelar.
