S92 MGB

There are a few changes recently, the latest being the reduction to the overhaul life being reduced to 1400 hours and just this last week being further reduced to 1000 hrs.
The instalation procedures for fitting the MGB have also been revised, the feet are no longer put down using sealeant UNDER the foot and they are now metal to metal contact with the airframe. With this reduction to the overhaul life I only hope Sikorsky can keep up with supplying gearboxes on time, otherwise our clients will get rather displeased with the otherwise very good S92A, when will the S92B come out.???
