Hello DB,
You're right and may I add that I've got friends who fly their 225 and 725 for heavy lift or real combat missions every day without any problem due to their aircraft.
On that thread, everybody is talking about grounding or RTF or "what is going to happen if the 225 returns to fly one day" like if all the fleet was not flying but the reality is that there are as many 225/725 flying that grounded.
And please don't answer as before "Not flying over hostile terrain" because first : a desert full of 4X4 Toyota with 50' machine gun is an hostile terrain if you're not in the car and second : failure don't wait to be over hostile terrain to happen and nothing happened in nearly 30 000 hrs at the present time.
I'm not saying that everything is perfect about this subject (far from it) but I would like you to remind that 225/725 are flying every day. That is the reality.
