Lovely HD, very insightful!
To even the most casual observer it seems that CHC are cutting things extremely tight. The ITAR mess has delayed the introduction of the Sligo 92 by about 2 weeks but the start date appears to have stayed the same. Net result is 2 weeks less build up training for the Sligo crews. Are corners being cut?
Also, I see the work on the Dublin hangar has started. They'll be working around the clock to get that finished by December, never mind for when their 92 arrives.
I refuse to believe that the Irish Coast Guard are not penalising CHC for not having Waterford and Dublin operational. It should be easy enough to find out though. An FOI request or a Dàil question should get the required info.
