How bad are the Rockies for turbulance?
It seems strange to me that a manafacturer would not allow its product to be flown in certain areas. Any aircraft which is airworthy should be able to be flown in most conditions, for which is was designed for.
It would be like a car company saying that it's product is fine, but we strongly advise not to use it on a motorway as at top speed the flux-capacitor will fail.
Is Robinson the only company to stipulate which way a machine departs it factory?

Sympathy to friends, collegues and family of the deceased
