Rich Lee- great post!
On another note....
It is interesting to note that Canada (and I believe the US) now permits single engine fixed wing aircraft to carry passengers IFR and at night. But with some pretty stringent requirements to ensure the engine is properly maintained and operated correctly.
I believe that's why Agusta did the A119 - same reliable engine (PT-6) as the FW world now allows to fly IFR.
Are we going to listen to the FW's history?
