Looking at all the posts on this thread it strikes me that almost all the posts running down the AB139 are from people who admit to knowing nothing about it. Yes in an ideal world we all want the biggest, best, toys, but in the real world economics also plays a role. Maybe when you were a kid you wanted a PS2 but your father could only afford a Nintendo Gameboy. The only thing you knew was that all the boys whose dad's had money bought them PS2s, so they must be better. There's so much garbage being spouted about how CHC has the aircraft but has not come up to defend it so it must be rubbish. Maybe they just feel it's not worth replying to uninformed gossip - which is about what most of it amounts to. Let's wait and see what actually happens in light of the facts and real figures. In the meantime, good luck to CHC and I hope the transition to the new types goes smoothly
