but the bears are going to take a LOT of convincing in the months ahead to get back onto a Super Puma, in any of its variants
...Until the next major event on an S92, AW139, S76 etc. The "bears" do have a rather short and parochial memory, and that is why their opinion should not be used to determine flight safety decisions. That said, I think the vast majority are sensible and understand the concept of risk, and are aware of just how much trouble-free flying these aircraft all do.
