Whilst it is clear from various sources that there is a problem with supportability of the current Explorer fleet, as usual these types of reports tend to get facts wrong and make misleading statements and conclusions.
As far as I am aware the Dutch Police cancelled their order as a result of a long delayed performance increase and certification thereof.
What are the 50 to 80 % availability statements based on? I doubt that any force would accept operating an aircraft which is on average only available every second operational duty day that it is required!!!
And finally we have 'the obvious choice' which apparently is 'the Eurocopter' (EC225 perhaps??) but it would be coming from that source!!!
All in all more than a hint of a staged report by 'Le Bleu'
