Unfortunately the flying tank that is the 92 seems to be getting increasingly squeezed by ‘super’
mediums like the 189 when people talk about the future. Money talks!
Maybe the "talk" says so, but the reality doesn't seem to support that. CHC's sole UK registered AW189 has no work and there is talk it will be mothballed. 175 numbers are growing slowly in Aberdeen, but that is mainly to cover for dreadful availability. Super mediums have basically not had that great an impact in the Northern N Sea, especially in Norway.
Unless you can
prove otherwise
