Where is the resistance?
Nick,
What are the major reasons no one goes forward with your recommendations? It seems they address many issues that the NTSB has highlighted with helicopter accidents in the last 10 years.
Correct me if I am wrong, but I dont think there is a collective corporate voice (entity) to move change forward. Inpart why change the way things have been operating (acceptable loss).
Pilots are too disorganized to force change (despite unions), common bond is we are not fixed wing drivers and sadly it seems to end there. Imagine a "brown flu" day in the GOM where the pilots did not show.
Manufactures do not seem to take the lead, Bell 206,407,427,430. Break the mold! I do like Bells over ECs (personal opinion). Do you think it could be return on investment?
Government RED TAPE....can't imagine this being an issue, run it through Haliburton and it will done ASAP.
