The Helio AU-24A was the gunship version of the H550A Stallion, with a PT6A-114 turboprop, equipped with a General Electric XM-197 three-barrel 20 mm Gatling gun was mounted in the left cargo door.

 Courier
Couriers are distinguished from ordinary mail services by features such as speed, security, tracking, signature, specialization and individualization of services, and committed delivery times, which are optional for most everyday mail services.
As a premium service, couriers are usually more expensive than usual mail services, and their use is typically restricted to packages where one or more of these features are considered important enough to warrant the cost.
The world's largest courier companies are UPS, followed by FedEx and DHL, the first two being based in the United States and the latter now owned by Deutsche Post, a German company, and offer services worldwide, typically via a hub and spoke model.

The design of the S-7 originated out of the need to train Coyote I pilots; so the cockpit was set up the same with throttle left, stick in the middle.
Named the Courier in honor of one of my favorite planes, The Helio Courier, the S-7 must have inherited some Helio spirit, since it also is very STOL.
Designated the S-7LS, this form of a ready to fly Courier is in production with deliveries being made all over the USA and beyond.

 FlightSim.Com Review: Helio Courier
According to the operating manual for the H-295 (which I downloaded from Helio Aircraft's web site at www.helioaircraft.com), these slats were "operated fully automatically by the air-loads on them".
If you download this plane, don't expect a panel that would be comparable to a 20 MB download, but you can expect one of the best small file panels I have seen in a long time.
The flight characteristics of the plane were great (based on my zero hours of flying Couriers), and the plane was a snap to fly.
