Sorry, but Ms Tilton has done the company no favors. The company needed someone who was looking for long term recovery of the company, not someone who thought she could pump some money into it, win some big contracts and flip it to another buyer. They really needed a Sikorsky or other manufacturer who understands how to engineer helicopters.

MD has several good airframe designs that well deserve to stick around and be improved but they have stagnated. They need engineering improvement and to rebuild their support structure not sales hype.
