Nord Aviation N 500 Cadet
Nord Aviation N 500 Cadet (msn 001), at the Paris Air Show held at Le Bourget in June 1967, with airshow serial 344'. In 1966 Nord (later part of Aerospatiale) built two Cadets, each powered by two 317 shp Allison T63-A-5A engines. The Nord 500 Cadet was 22 ft long and 20 ft wide, weighed only 2, 760 lb and used two relatively large five-bladed ducted propellers. On the exit end of the ducts, four control vanes in a diamond shape controlled pitch (collectively) and yaw (differentially). The first aircraft was used for static tests while the second made a tethered hover on 23 July 1968. It was cancelled without being tested further. Date: 1967
