It differs with every machine. Large military helicopters generally have longest range and near highest speeds.

How many miles per hour it is a helicopter fly?

Helicopters typically fly at speeds ranging from 90 to 160 miles per hour, depending on the model and purpose. Some larger helicopters, like military or transport helicopters, can achieve speeds up to 200 miles per hour. However, the cruising speed is often around 120 miles per hour for many civilian helicopters. Factors such as payload, altitude, and weather can also affect a helicopter's speed.


Can helicopters fly into the stratosphere?

Helicopters are not very well suited to high altitude flight. By their very nature helicopters less suited for high altitudes than airplanes or balloons. Additionally, since the most common usages of helicopters deals in short hops or other low-altitude duties, modern helicopters aren't designed with high altitude flight in mind. The stratosphere is generally agreed to start at about 30,000 feet altitude. While this is pretty near to the helicopter altitude record (in 2005 an Ecureuil/AStar AS 350 B3 helicopter landed on Mount Everest (29,035 feet)) This is far higher than the ceiling of the average helicopter (10 to 12,000 feet).

What is the average altitude a helicopter may fly at?

Helicopters fly somewhat close to the ground. They fly near the troposphere. They fly at a lower altitude than planes.


What is the speed of a jet plane traveling at the speed of sound?

It depends on the aircraft's altitude. The speed of sound is decreasing as altitude increases, thus an airplane flying at the speed of sound at 1000 feet will be traveling as fast as 1200 kilometers per hour, while one flying at 30000 feet will be moving way slower, in the 800 kph range.

Why can't helicopters fly into the stratosphere?

The air gets thinner as altitude increases, which in turn decreases the amount of lift an aircraft can get. The air in the stratosphere is far too thing for helicopters and most planes.


How do you mease speed for helicopters?

You measure forward air speed in the same way you do in any aircraft.
