Just my two cents-worth..

Just my (carefully worded) view here (and based upon a number of Mumbai/Bombay contracts as rotary skipper and sales-demo pilot) IMHO, if AW hadn't (allegedly) greased palms in the early stages of contract negotiation, I doubt they would have reached such an advanced stage...

Also IMHO.this whole business has a whiff of political interference/involvement... as Heli1 has already suggested.

Cry foul after deliveries have started?

Maybe the culture has changed in recent times but in the past, if you wanted to play ball you played by their rules.
