S-76C++ Replacement Windscreen
I recently reviewed the "Sikorsky S76C++ Helicopter Offshore Oil Mission" technical information download from the Sikorsky Website. Sikorsky reports The Standard Offshore Oil Configuration consists of the Baseline Configuration plus the following options. Of those options it list “Plastic windshields – replaces baseline glass windshields”.
The Data was published in 2007. I do not know if this option was available in late 2006 when N748P received its Certification.
However, Old Skool inferred that PHI changed out the glass to plastic. Did PHI’s AP’s do this conversion or was it a factory conversion per the Options listed above?
Like JohnDixson, I too am interested to see the information regarding the replacement windscreen.
