MD Explorers - Is there a downtime problem?
The MD902 competes well in the ALE/EMS market and for good reason. But uncertainty over the future of MDHI must surely be the biggest cause of poor sales over the last few years and the cancellation of eight 902’s by KLPD earlier this month can only add to their cash flow problems.
Money alone may not save them and in the absence of any success in the ARH/LUH competitions, the acquisition of MDHI by a well respected and well funded helicopter manufacturer may be the only viable future.
Just a thought…..
