We now have a bun fight between speculative journo's. Great! Don't believe anything that you read in the press.. that's nothing new so getting back to 135/900.
We bought the 135 on looks, functionality and a reputation that on the whole the EC product was well catered for on the maintenance back-up support. And to date we are happy that we didn't go the 900 route from what we know of the troubles that our close business friends are experiencing. Though we have to agree that when the 900 is not in the hangar it does work well. We have had unserviceabilities and ongoing problems but the maintenance outfit are doing a good job to keep us in the air.
Helinut has made the point very clearly that any purchase has to be out there flying and not languishing in a hangar.
