I think the Norsk/Bristow case belong to this thread. We dont need to discuss it until we know where it leaked and what caused it. Its good it came up, then perhaps some guy knowing more can sypply the answers...
IF it was a MGB oil leak, then it sure belong here, and it it was another leak we just forget about it.
Heh.

Umm, when did this thread morph into "S-92 MGB Problems Exclusively?" It is entitled, "S-92: From Design to Operations" and as such, *any* discussion of *any* issue is valid and relevant to this thread.

It has been shoved down our throats about what a "safer" helicopter the S-92 is, especially when compared specifically to other helicopters. Now, as issues crop up - some of them serious or potentially so, we are getting an attitude that these are just minor, inconsequential, dismissable "teething problems" that should be expected of all A-models.

An oil leak that results in a forced landing on an oil rig in the North Sea. T'is nothing! Let's not discuss it here. Fuggeddaboudit!

Yeah. Right.
