Our CHC brethren on the SAR S92 in Norway are arguing the case to turn the interim nature of their contract into a permanent solution. They have proven the civilian operation of a pair of S92's equally as capable in real terms but government want to make it all AW101 including remote bases. 45 minute hover limit due to recurring MGB chips is less than ideal. Serviceability rate overall nowhere near the civlian S92 standard across CHC and Bristow of 96-98%.
