This thread is beginning to turn into a slagging match between Nick and Helicomparator (which seems somewhat of a misnomer as he/she does not truly compare).
I am a bit concerned about this alleged 700lb baggage/cargo limit. I had heard this sometime ago and, via a PM, Nick implied that the baggage bay limit was significantly higher. If it is true, it is not much more than the S76 baggage bay limit. Nick- can you clarify?
As to range/payload calculations, I hope the 225 has more accurate airspeed indications systems than those fitted to the L2 which constantly over-read in cruise flight by, I suspect at least 7-8%.
No one has yet compared Group/Cat A performance. Do the aircraft need 800 metres of runway to take off which is more than some fixed wing aircraft need?
I hope that anyone who has ordered 225's or 92's have included a performance guarantee in their contract with the supplier.
