BHL and Brintel have always worked together from a training point of view. One company having a 61 sim and the other the Puma sim with pilots using each others simulators. I am aware that the latest co-pilots at Scotia were type coverted onto the Super Puma by Bristows as Scotia didn't have a training licence in place.
I think most pilots are aware that Leading Edge knows what he's talking about - There is a lot more going on behind the scenes than even the most suspicious of us would imagine !
