HC,
As I have flown neither....I have no axe to grind.
I did not have you in mind in particular....but since you leaped into the conversation....you do have to admit the significance of the problem AND the cure....has affected the 225 far worse than the 92.
You can carry on with your argument about the design superiority of the 225 over the 92 with someone from Sikorsky if you wish.
As to calling the 225 superior to the 92 is your opinion that does seem to be challenged by the current situation.
I understand your loyalty to the 225.....as you have a lot of personal involvement in that program with your employer....thus also some sensitivity to any criticism of the 225 and EC.
Neither EC or SK are without fault, just as the Certification Authorities are alsonot without fault.....and as to the 92....there was some Operator errors as well. So please don't try to trivialize the situation as you and the rest of us know it is a far more complex situation than your post would suggest.
