Be Very Careful Around Bonny Island

Rumor is that the EC225s will be on their way for Aero again soon

Bristow people obviously not happy as many of the posts here lately are about them. What of their pay rise? What of the S92s? With the S92 transmission problems I don't think I'd like to be flying one in a place like Nigeria until that problem is sorted out

For anyone heading Bonny way, be very, very careful. There are many rumors about what could happen at Bonny in the very near future - none of them nice. All expats have been advised to leave and there are now around 1000 armed army personnel on the island. Keep clear of the place if you can and if not stay as short a time as possible and fly out of range of rifle and RPG fire
