Max,
I sense you have an attachment to the Cougar accident, and I sympathise with you. I lost a friend in that accident and will not be forgotten.
I have many more friends flying or soon to be flying the S92/CH148 so I too would like to see the upgraded gearbox et al.
As you will see from my post I was highlighting the misgivings of previous Canadian Governments to allow the military to find itself in the situation it does. The government can not have its' cake and eat it.
Hopefully you can be less emotional in your posts and I am sure that the aircrew flying the machines will be just as curious as to where the answers are coming from. After all they are flying them everyday.
Pas.
