These subjects are so distorted by people happily ignoring hundreds of deaths that have occurred across the history of the helicopter.
More a cautious concern about possible future deaths I would suggest.

It is hard to reckon with the findings of the AAIB Report quoted by Mars.

A loss of two Rotor Heads in fairly short succession....does give grounds for pause don't you think?

Before you challenge the above, consider I would be saying the same thing no matter the Type.

Every "new" aircraft will have unforeseen issues no matter how good its designers think they are....the 92 and 225 are alike in that.

The difference being the 225 issues have not been completely sorted to the satisfaction of the AAIB as I read it.

Are they not supposed to be the Subject Matter Experts when it comes to analyzing these kinds of things?
