If I re-read the original note in this thread, I'm stumped as to why anyone would chose a single engine aircraft.
Also, I must have better engineers than the ones that Heloteacher deals with because I do not find any higher level of unseviceability with the twins I've been flying the last 12 years. You just need sharp engineers and more spares!
Give me redundancy or give me my freedom!
An S61 maintained by the terrific engineers of CHC... take a gander at the looks on the faces of the people when you land just off the shoreline at the cottage and throw out an anchor or taxi up onto the beach... room to party and reliability that keeps them in demand onshore and offshore to this day.
You still only need a double sized tennis court to land in and you've got room for all the neighbours!
You know, an S-64 has those nifty little modules... is it too late to change my vote?
Mr. Sikorsky, you make great helicopters!
