AW139's back in service for sometime now, in actual fact they were never removed from service by either the operator or any regulatory authority.
Customer confidence took a knock, but after several oil company audits, that has been restored, Gulf Helicopters maintenance or actions, pre or post incident, has never been brought into doubt.
Maybe you never noticed but the AW139's were always there!, hangar has Bell 412's on regular maintenance inside, they took up the slack when customers did not want to fly the AW139, so now maintenance backed up on them, normal stuff when you fly extra hours on one particular type.
Tailbooms are still the same, they will be upgraded to the newer version in time, and before anyone jumps down my throat, 'WAIT FOR THE REPORT' I know, I have read the draft, you'll see it approx January, keep flying and be happy.
