CantHover.
Saw your posting on Rotorheads and it still may elicit some response . Dont give up so soon. There are three folks who post at times who are very knowledgable, Nick Lappos, Lu Zuckerman and Shawn Coyle. Problem is Nick is a Factory guy, and Shawn works at the Test Pilot school. For them to make comments regarding an accident is pretty touchy considering their positions. Lu may jump in though if someone PMs him.
This thread I think has been answered a few times. In that everyone knows a Manufacturer is not going to enter into the mess with possible pending litigation. Same as CAA. That should be understood.
Rolling an EC anything is not a common occurance due to "Fenestron issues" as far as I have seen on numerous Helicopter Forums. Im betting the best way to make this go away is for the three?? folks involved to have a sit down with someone at CAA who is directly involved with this mess and pose the question "What do we do to make it go away".
Bad enough that their is damage to an aircraft and no doubt finger pointing will result in money for Lawyers. Thankfully no major injuries.
