What is the flight time of the UH-60A/L/M Blackhawk?

• A. 2 hours, 45 minutes
• B. 1 hour, 30 minutes
• C. 3 hours
• D. 2 hours, 30 minutes

Answer: (D)

Endurance is how long the helicopter can stay airborne with the fuel it’s carrying. For the UH-60A/L/M Blackhawk, the standard internal fuel setup gives about two and a half hours of flight time. That makes two hours and thirty minutes the best match for typical mission planning under normal conditions. Longer durations would require extra fuel, and shorter ones would mean less than the standard fuel load, but with standard capacity the 2:30 figure is the expected value.
