No worries. I have no idea re WA section, but there's nothing I'm aware of that suggests we are avoiding gravel strips. Perhaps no gravel strip jobs have come up yet that needed the jet rather than the -12? We're only going to use the jet on jobs that need it, not the normal every day tasks.

Regarding the dirt landing by FMP, that was filmed re May 6/7. I subsequently flew it on May 9,10, and 13.
There was no issues caused by the dirt landing that grounded the aircraft for any period I'm aware of.
Cheers.
