Wow!,
Seems the accident has hit a bit of a raw nerve amongst the chc brigade.
It's amazing how the chc people were more than happy to put sh1t on the "vinnies" yet they don't seem to be able to accept that same sort of criticism?
Lets face it, if everything was really going as well as the chc people say it is, there would be nothing but praise about the operation and there would be people within chc falling over each other to get on the contract, especially with the knowledge that the pilots and crew would get to fly AW139's and Ec145's? (even if the EC 145 is a new generation Bk117 (so hated by the chc people). But the fact is that internally no one wanted to take up the offer??????????
