HC,
Thanks for your knowledgeable and enlightening posts
. However, on those occasions when I've been SLF, I've loved the room and air conditioning, but hated the noise and air-stair door vibrations in the S92, and hated the claustrophobic cabin and lack of air conditioning in the EC225. I'm almost convinced that you're right, the EC225 is a better pilots' machine with an inherently safer and more modern design than the S92, but from a passenger perspective, the S92 wins (for now). I hope that eventually both will go on to be safe and successful, like the S61 and Super Puma eventually did in their day. The only real difference nowadays is instant opinions of others on the internet influencing the (mostly unreasoned) opinions and thinking of the herd
