I'm amazed at the emotion that this seems to raise time and time again. My viewpoint, for what it's worth:
As a pilot I would buy an EC225 every time.
As an operator I would buy an S92 due to cost.
As a client I would buy an S92 due to cabin size and baggage capacity. ECF missed a huge opportunity with their promised 332 Mk3 fuselage!!
Range vs payload may become a very marginal argument with some, but please be cautious of the ECF "on delivery performance" that they quote!!
At the moment the S92 is winning on a global basis, perhaps rightly........?
