Goodness I thought this was a thread on the ec 120 not a law lecture. Hope Eurocopter don t sue me for praising the 120 ! Yes it is important to be factual as i have also been. Another fact is that anyone owning a turbomeca engine with four years to run will be getting a very very big bill in 2015 if not sooner and no options, you must deal with turbomeca uk. - not even aloud to go to America. In contrast with the rolls royce model 250 you have a choice of dozens of overhaul shops to negotiate with. A recent 1750 hour inspection on one of my RR 250 turbines cost £24k including replacement of two wheels.-fact ! and no calender life.
