But when the blackhawks arrived ..

.. think it was more a case of the mission requirements had altered and Army needed more speed to do a higher proportion of communications flying .. to get rid Nomad in the normal way would have taken too long .. so out with the knives and Kingairs weren't too far away ..

Don't think that it had much to do with the Blackhawk, though ..
