a response to Cordy
There is a bit of misunderstanding going on here, the EH101 is a crash worthy helicopter and has certification in the UK, Italy and the USA as such, just to an earlier (less demanding) set of rules, but good enough to transport paying passengers in.
Some other helicopters meet a later set but that doesnt mean the EH101 (or any other aircraft from that time) is dangerous or lethal in a crash, it is far more survivable than a Ch47, Puma or any UH1 variant for instance.
