Man this is intersting stuff - an oke prangs in Durbs - his mates all ask huge ?'s about the 120. Three guys get ratings pulled, two of them seriously the other just a phone call. Then lots of slating of ESA and the CAA and all of a sudden a FOX jumps out of its hole. This is good stuff. But back to the 120 (or am I spoiling the fun here).
Anyone heard an update about the ratings being pulled or whether there have been any further developments regarding the information that ESA have got about the fenestron. Seems like most of the guys that got inhouse ratings have never seen the info that is supposedly available. Hearing rumours that ESA are doing a road show around SA to get everyone on the right track. Simple - give all the guys the info and then everyone is saved from the potential trap - just look at some Gazelle accident reports - 16 in the Brit Army lost to the same thing - mostly by experienced guys. Also wonder if the CAA chap gives a fenestron briefing as a standard on all 120/130 conversions - I certainly have not seen that.
Now fetch that fox.........
