Bell has awarded PPG (N6100) with a contract to produce heated pilot and copilot windshields for the Bell 525 Relentless. The composite windshields feature scratch-resistant coating and are available for customer specification on helicopters operating in mountainous and offshore environments.

“We have the transparency-forming expertise to produce the windshield’s deep, complex, and compound vertical bend,” said Steve Nyman, PPG's segment manager for general aviation transparencies. The front-facing portion of the windshield will be contoured to wrap around to the side at around 100 degrees, allowing exceptional clarity for both the pilot and copilot.
