Thumbs up AW to cancel contracts with PZL Swidnik

It seems that after AW offer less $$ for 81% percent shares than Aero Vodochody and US partners (Boeing, Sikorski) , Pol Gov privatization agency selected Czechs to purchase PZL Swidnik.

Answer from AW was bitter, some development and airframe production contracts canceled overnight. AW still owns approx 9% of Swidnik shares. AW139 and AW149 was partly developed in Swidink.

Market may be again in oportunity to select nice good old W3A Sokols and modern SW-4 which where pusshed on side during "cooperation" time with AW.

Hope to see some S76D airframes there on next visit
