4 axis on the 139...

Hello,
2 questions for you, 139 specialists...:
- what about the 4 axis AP on the 139 ? is it already fitted ( I heard it's already on the japanese coast guards ) ? Are you, pilots and crews happy with ?
- what about the trans down and the automatic hover without a doppler ? I used to fly EC choppers, 4 axis and doppler for SAR mission, then , how efficient is it on the 139 ? How stable is the HLO in the hover, compared to a "doppler" hover?
Thanks for you reply
fly safe...
