Long nose/short nose config
The following issue is not very important but it has kept me wondering a couple of times regarding the long/short nose config of the AW139. According to AW's sale rep here in the UK (and mr Gualdoni's AW139 production list website) all AW139 post s/n 31201 are long nose config, however if I look at photographs of certain post 31201 s/n aircraft (31406 for example) they seem to have the original short nose. Does anyone know what the story behind this is?
