I read that the average fuel consumption per hour of a Mi-8 is about 800 Liters.
How much does an S-61/S-92 need in an hour?

Is the overhaul schedule different of a Mi-8 in comparison to a “western” helicopter?
When these machines are designed to be operated in remote areas, do they have 100h/300h etc. controls or do they have a “big” overhaul after a certain time?
I hope you understand what I try to say.

It would be interesting to hear about the differences in the maintenance schedule.
