I hear that the Puma L2 fleet has been grounded. Anyone know who grounded them? Was it Eurocopter, a national authority, an operator or the oil companies?

As the aircraft should now have been inspected by Eurocopter, they obviously know the cause. One would normally expect a directive calling for a fleet check to allow it to continue flying. They must have found something more serious. It looks like the fleet may be grounded for a while if a modification is going to have to be produced.
