SASless,

Thanks for the wisdom! Please see that sox6 has one goal - keep this thread near the top, and keep selling 225's (on top of the 4 or 5 already sold, that is.....)

I actually posted some dirt on EC in a previous thread that he was pumping, but pulled it down because his game is not mine. He cannot see the ditchings and broken tail rotors on his favorite helos, but the chafing hydraulic lines on two 92's drives him nuts. So be it.

The 92 is a fine machine, and will probably be a classic. The Norsk fleet is now averaging 2,000 hours per S-92 per year. I don't know any old, proven machine that has shown within 3/4 of that flight rate!
