CBC article

That CBC article from May 6th seemed fairly reasonable. The S-92 MRGB housing inspection directives put in place seem to be working, and this time a housing crack was detected before it caused a problem.

What caught my eye in that article however, was this sentence: "The crack was discovered in the same S-92 helicopter that had been grounded in January with the same problem." If true, it sounds like that particular airframe might have some other issues.
