Nick,
We have discussed this before...and actually agree about having a focus upon "real" accident causes....vice grinding away with the same old wheel. My point was merely to point out that in previous posts to other threads you have talked of the 92's load it up and go capability. Believe me when I say as an oldtime pilot...I understand the beauty of that capability....but....following your logic that we are only exposed to an engine failure during the critical phase in takeoffs for .0000008 percent of the time...or some such number....then why all the wonderful performance for the 92....maybe some of that weight and power could have been expended upon range and cargo volume and thus step back to the current status of most twin engined helicopters wherein we all risk a saltwater dip should one of the Donks give up the ghost during a takeoff at "max" weight?
