tottigol,
The closed markets are England and Italy, they have both professed that they will not compete the newest medium helicopter purchases, out of protectionism for their products.

I do not recall any publicity of lost jobs, Sikorsky had been careful to avoid those words.

Regarding payment of taxes, I foolishly thought that you might be a Bell person. Even so, I am sure the US would take some tax payment from you, if you were so generous as to send it!!
