To continue on the topic, without slagging people of. Spanish helicopter operator Helisureste signed a contract for the delivery of two Ka-32s. It doesn't say so on their website (or it might, don't speak Spanish).

And what about that air service between two small island in Malta, they've used the Mi-8T for a couple of years, and quite intensive in the summer season.

The south Korean are also using heaps and heaps of Kamovs, but this was done in a barter deal (debt for military hardware). So not completly fair to put it down to the qualities of the Helix....

Off all Russian helicopters I like the Ka-226 the most, looks ugly but I thought it was a nifty idea to be able to de-attach the passenger cabin and use it for aerial crane work instead. I like modular things....
