Mmm! It is like going backwards! AW139 is much much better than 412 in many
ways. Power, safety, IFR, speed, etc.. It is a pilot choice ..Yet it burns more
fuel, high maintenace due to high tech it has
UNLESS Bell starts thinking again & improving 412s
Horses for courses...Probably like a few people, I am currently flying both.
Yep, for an IFR hospital transfer or winching somebody out of the water at night via a MOT I will take a 139....for a primary response day/night or winching somebody out of an awkard spot on goggles, or plonking it into the dust, I personally would take a 412 EP...each to their own I guess.
Whats the the new 412 EPI like...more power, glass?
Cheers
