'Last year MD delivered 15 helicopters, which consisted of eight Explorers, one MD 600N, three MD 530Fs and three MD 500Es.....'


That list is particularly worrying.

MD are apparently not now selling their bread and butter airframes into the home [USA] market. The law enforcers appear to be increasingly going elsewhere.......

In fairness for this years sales totals there are a handful of 600s off to Turkey, but I wonder if there has been any recovery in the home sales of the 500 line?
