The guy washing helicopters behind the hangar, told me he read this in Defense Daily News today,
"Only He Knows. The exact date Canada will officially open competition to replace its aging SH-3 Sea Kings is known only by the Canadian prime minister Jean Chretien, according to Sikorsky President Dean Borgman. We believe that the decision is on his desk, and that a decision will come out by the end of the year, he says. Sikorsky is looking to provide a version of its S-92 helicopter as Canada's future maritime patrol helicopter."
The milkman also told me "in confidence" to watch out for the old Aero Vodochody S-76. Said some old boy down the pub was talking about it????
