Amid all the rumours/facts that have been circulating locally, the only one I have heard about aircraft is that the money may be used to purchase aircraft for other parts of the company.

The S61/payload/route/weather/summer-heavy year-round demand is just about the perfect combination, (allowing for a slight shortness of breath in the summer)., for a helicopter which is why the service has been so successful. Its difficult to see any aircraft replacing the S61 until rising spares costs prices the 61 out of any market. An educated guess, I have no current inside info.
