KENNYR,

You asked for the thread to get back on track so here goes.

4 Blades replaced.
All other transmission systems tested IAW AP101 or whatever it is.
System tested - No fault found.
Aircraft tracked and balanced on ground and then airtested back to Aldergrove.
Crews back flying now I believe post check with QHI.
Investigation still ongoing both Regimental and SIB.
230 Sqn still training for other pastures and 5 Regt picking up all the work with only half the crews they used to have and half the helo's. Oh and 1 Navy Lynx helping out as well.
The boys are working hard believe you me and little bouts of stupidity sometimes creep in but they have been honest throughout and will take whatever they get on the chin.
