My question concerning HUMS was that I was not sure if the AW139 aircraft belonging to GH had HUMS fitted, and would/should it have detected any of the pre-flight abnormalities that happened on both aircraft?

I suppose it is better late than never to have HUMS fitted after the events, however this is a only one small step in air safety, there are many more to be taken to ensure safe flying operations here in the sand.
We are told here that maintenance is the number one concern at GH for all customers and passengers.

Why was HUMS not ordered as part of the aircraft delivery specification if the customers and passengers are so important to their core business?
