"The story is all so familiar in Australia. A contractor promising the problems will be resolved, the customer not prepared to admit they made a mistake trying to develop a "new" naval helicopter.
Will it all end in tears or will the the Canadian government continue to lap up Sikorsky's excuses?"
ptflyer.
They always have excuses, (
we will learn lessons take your comments on board etc)
I am fighting another manufacturer (
not helicopter) regarding product that does not preform, all I get is "it meets this spec" but the firmware does not preform as per the operating expectation.
Remind you of anything in the helio industry?.
Most of us can not bring enough pressure to bear & when governments role over what chance do the rest have.
Products should at least meet the design spec. I understand that there will be in service failure's (
why is it that the customer can find them in hours days and manufacturers not in months \ years of in depth testing) especialy with software, we get new software weekly and there are glaring problems within the first days use in 10\15% either a function does not work as industry standard or has operating glitch.
Thread creep sorry, bad day & only Monday here
