539:(WFEDC). The agreement provided Carter with a US$ 4M segmented loan (sourced from 4A sales tax) for use as operating capital to allow increased development activity and company expansion, matching some of the AAI funding. The loan was provided at a zero-percent interest rate with a delayed re-payment period and also includes a forgiveness clause in exchange for new job creation of 300 manufacturing jobs. The total investment by AAI and WFEDC was up to $ 12 million. According to the agreement, Wichita Falls provided a 25,000-square-foot (2,300 m) building for CAT around the time of first flight. The $ 4m was to be paid in 8 segments depending on 29: 266:, the company's sole flying technology demonstrator, reached a rotorcraft milestone but crashed on the next flight. The aircraft had been flying at 160 mph (257 km/h) when the drive pulley to the propeller drive-shaft bolts failed in flight, reversing propeller thrust. The aircraft was damaged beyond repair but both crew members were unharmed. The accident set the company's development back at least ten months as a small wingless autogyro was not flown until 2006, and the 753: 741: 729: 717: 482: 466: 658:-1) on 17 June 2005. μ-1 is "an aerodynamic limit defined by a forward speed and rotor rpm combination that results in advancing (moving into the relative wind) blade tips reaching speeds of twice that of the aircraft. At the same time, the retreating blade tips experience zero airspeed (as they rotate away from the relative wind) on the opposite side -- the entire inboard portion of the blade sees 'reverse' air flow." 697: 681: 446: 434: 131: 416:, but over a future range of 1300 nautical miles compared to the demonstrated 150 nautical miles (280 km) or more of the K-MAX. AAI expected this cargo aircraft to fly in 2011. The agreement committed CarterCopters to developing the technology to maturity for 4 complete aircraft in 2011, in exchange for exclusive rights to develop UAVs for the next 40 years. 270:(a subsequent 4-place manned compound rotorcraft, N110AV) was not flown until 2011. Design of the PAV was begun during 2005. Carter says it has flown 186 kn (344 km/h; 214 mph) at 18,000 feet and reached a Mu of 1.13.
