Yeah right!

Get back over here on the sunny side of the Atlantic and give me some advice on my question about SAR equipment!

My friend spotted a whole bunch of 412's and I am not in the mood to get my back cracked with the old thumpers!

SO, please, some serious data and arguments, if possible with some reference, 'cause that will be the only way to convince him to at least look at something else!

I don't know why some folks defend a certain airframe to the point of fanatism, just because they used it a lot in the past, but have no objective view for lack of comparative experience.

Personally I don't care which machine will make the cut, but I really would like to have a couple in the race to at least look at different alternatives.

Hell, I hear the Kamov Ka-32 is a monster in that class )
