Seems to me as a "plank driver" that the only things holding up a heli are the rotating wings, so if the nut holding that assembly together fails, it doesn't make a very good glider.....

I also think that as even the best assembly may develop problems, if I were required to sit in one of those busses to go to my work, I would be a lot happier if the flotation gear was improved.
