The comments saying that the aircraft are "airworthy" and "ready to go and have been for years" are way off the mark, as is the comment on converting output from the ADC into digital. That is spin from Kaman, it always need at least 3 ADC's for a start. That issue, isn't even a pimple on other issues that were, (as a result of an evolving airworthiness environment) going to have a far greater affect on the operation of the aircraft.
Airworthiness, operational capability and risk management have never before been used to the extent that they were in this decision to cancel the program. Not for $150 Mil or even triple that, were we ever going to get a capability close to what we wanted, with any acceptable level of risk..............period.
Any response, PAF or Ultralights?
