Nick,
Sorry to stick my nose into your discussion but I think the 92 as a new build aircraft should be much better than its competitor.
When you consider that the Puma is such an old design that has just been stretched and modified for the past 30 years I would have expected Sikorsky to have built a machine that was streets ahead.
In the end of the day the fact that there is a credible competitor to the Eurocopter product is only good for the pilots.
Maybe Eurocopter will get off their arses and design a new machine instead of tweaking the old one. For now the fact that they got the 225 on the same type rating as the 332 is a huge advantage.
