MI 38
Thanks for that 9A; Does this machine have a identifiable market in the west.I say this as 'one' of the reasons that the (UK) Isles of Scilly route closed was due to the cost of keeping the S61 going.
There is no doubt that this service was the making of the Islands holiday trade,and having got used to the rot wing 'bus/train like' convenience the fixed wing only alternative is proving less of a 'service' this winter.
With a potential pass trade of 100,000 PA can a large helicopter be made to pay its way in the current economic climate.
