Here is some interesting tripe. Remember, those guys are telling us that the awesome 55,000 hours of experience makes EH-101 a mature aircraft, a "combat proven" aircraft. Now they say that they need 22 maintenance hours per flight hour because:


"It was a new aircraft, and a new design, and there were several things that were not foreseen that happened early in service that gradually were corrected," Lt.-Col. Pierre Coulombe, project manager for the Cormorants, said in an interview.

Which way is it?
