""Why are amendments available to Boeing Vertol in October 1984 still not available to the RAF."
The same for Puma.
In the late 80's we (Odi-Trans Bay) were getting a huge back-log of Puma Blade Sleeve work (Norway's cold, you know?) and approached Bristow directly - going behind the EA's back - to find how they coped with cold climes in the North Sea.
Bristow had swapped Araldite Resin sealing for the Blade Sleeves for more durable PRC in the 1970's and the Aerospatiale manuals had the Mod added.
We then put in an Amendment request to the EA and got some dosh for our troubles.
