Not to sensitive here however I do have issues as I fly on these aircraft on a very regular basis out here in the sand-pit.

Like most offshore workers I do have concerns, I have lost friends in helicopter accidents in the North Sea in the past, and have no wish to see any family relieved of a husband/wife due to a helicopter crash due to poor design (AW) or bad maintenance (GH) or any other reason.

AW along with AW139 Operators are the only people who can solve this problem. My main concern is that they solve it sooner than later before we get another similar problem to Hong Kong, only this time the passengers and crew might not be so lucky.
