Analysis of production data by HeliHub.com suggests that this contract was likely signed some months back and only released now for this show.
I'm shocked, shocked I tell ya!
[Eurocopter ran] their own event for over 100 invited customers in the days just before at their Oxford base. A clear snub to Helitech organisers.
How is a nearby event organized to align with Helitech a snub? Had they held it in Aberdeen the same days as the show,
then it would have been a snub...
Pratt & Whitney - quite a small stand and no
PR. Fail.
So a fail
despite having a stand at the show? These shows are often of questionable value to major component suppliers (engines (P&WC, RR, TM), gearboxes (Triumph, ZF), blades (Kamen), etc.)
unless they have major news to announce (or a major sales campaign to pursue).
No mention of Sloane's presence (R66)?
