Not without incident, no doubt lazy media hype over nothing.

Irish Independant
An Air Corps investigation was underway last night into an incident involving a helicopter from the new €50m fleet after an emergency landing in Cannes.
Two of the AW139 helicopters were on their way to Ireland from Italy when one of them flew into low cloud and had to land in France.
Both aircraft, the first two of a four aircraft order, were to have landed in Baldonnel on Tuesday to be met by military personnel.
