Maxwell,
I would remind you that the Super Puma most certainly does not not have a perfect track record, and has also had a number of catastrophic gearbox and other failures. 1997 - Helikopter Service L1 (gearbox failure) and 2009 Bond L2 (geabox failure), MHS L2 in 2007 and 2006, Bristow G-JSAR 2006 so don't lose the perpective. Problems have been serious and numerous over the years, including catastrophic gearbox failure, engine overspeeds resulting in catastrophic failure, hydraulic fires and tail rotor failures. I do not intend to imply that the Puma has a poor safety record, as over the years it has flown many hundreds of thousands of hours, but they certainly do not have an "excellent track record".
Having flown both - I am much happier in an S92.
