Where's the tail rotor?

Don't need a tail rotor if you have some other system to counteract the main engine's torque and provide yaw control. MD Helicopters currently makes helos without tail rotors.

Mostly classified, but my business partners are usually companies like L3, Raytheon, Honeywell, Lockheed, and my customers are NASA, NSA, CIA, et al.

Good thing. Would be worried if you planned on a career in writing.

Do you work for Black and Yellow or Red, White, and Blue?
Or someone else entirely?

My high school was named after the founder of Bell Helicopter

I lived right across the street from Bell Helicopter's HQ in Hurst TX
