It might meet the certification process (just) but which you you want protecting your very vulnerable composite structures?

Remember the S92 MRGB 'passed' the FAA certification process............before one failed spectacularly.
Crab. I'm a big supporter but isn't this a bit mean spirited. What you're essentially saying is that a major helicopter manufacturer has passed certification procedures in the past and still had problems. Hardly news. Think Leicester AW169. Your next post is more generous. It's none of my business but this is your business. If some clever engineers come together to try and make a better product oughtn't you be a natural supporter ? If his or hers activity is supported by willing potential customers and lenders acting with free will, why should you care if it fails or succeeds. Again, it's none of my business, but it seems to me that you should call Dr. Hill and ask for a tour and sit down. You don't have to drink the Kool Aid, but it might help your more generous angel.
