All Shell twin engined aircraft have deployable CPIs.
I believe those come standard in all new S-76s, AW-139 and larger helicopters.
All ours have them anyway, that led to some pretty interesting calls from the USCG early on.
With my thought to the families of the crash victims I am really looking forward to finding out what the various recorders were able to do for them, but it seems to me that something very very bad must have happened very very quick, too quick.
In our hearts most of us probably know and in this forum we are adult enough to keep it to ourselves.
