malabo,

Then you need to look at it . The figure I heard was considerably more than 100% per engine with Nr down below 80%. The spindles are pretty much blown out, the elastomerics are screwed and the blade roots have almost totally delaminated. It really is a miracle they made it back. So much for 'blowaway' power. It would be indelicate to enquire about the condition of the seat cushions . However, there is some good news as I believe the ashtrays are still in 'as new' condition.
