Thumbs down Dutch LYNX fleet grounded
Just wondering if westland has grounded all lynx squadrons!
Dutch navy grounded the whole LYNX fleet last tuesday because of faulty Tail rotor drive shafts! New shafts had to be fitted to all aircraft before juni 19 and sinds then lots of problems with these new shafts!Bearings wearing within 20flying hours!!

Is this only 4 the Dutch or has westland grounded all LYNX users??
