World’s First Mil V-12 Hotel Cum helicopter

Imagine a five star hotel flying in air now times time to move on and experience the world’s first flying hotel. Unbelievable but it’s true recently a soviet Mil V-12 helicopter has been modified and now it turned in to the world’s biggest helicopter as well as first flying hotel.

Amazing look at the great design of this biggest hotel cum helicopter is about 135 feet long and 45 feet high. This helicopter is able to lift the maximum load of 105 thousand kilos off the ground and travel at very high speed of about 158 miles/hour.

Mil V-12 helicopter will take first flight on 26th of June. Some rich people may buy this luxurious helicopter for personal use but sources are unable give you information about the price of the cool biggest helicopter. Pictures are showing the internal luxury arrangement to provide you an exciting and comfort experience so enjoy flying in the sky.

The Fairey Rotodyne, 1959, advertised as the "first vertical take-off airliner in the world" (project scrapped in 1962) and the first helicopter airline in the world: New York Airways, 1953

Sure it has rotors -- it wouldn't be a helicopter without them -- but with the V-12 they are placed on the side of its massive fuselage. Weird, right? But this is BIG weirdness as the V-12 is commonly considered to be the largest helicopter in the world. How big? Think of it this way: see that 747 over there -- that monstrous fixed wing machine? Well, the V-12 is as wide as one of those 747s. But unlike a 747, the V-12 can take off straight up, and haul close to 55,000 pounds at the same time -- or 88,000 if it takes off a bit less like a helicopter and more like a plane.

When compared with a typical Chinook, Mi-26 does indeed look big:

November 2003, a U.S.-led coalition launched Operation Mountain Resolve in the Nuristan and Kunar provinces of Afghanistan. The above-displayed photograph of the precarious-looking rooftop landing by a CH-47 Chinook helicopter was taken during that operation by U.S. Army Sgt. Greg Heath. The Chinook helicopter is touching down to receive Afghan Persons Under Control (APUC) captured by members of the U.S. 10th Mountain Division"
