Noted the following Airbus announcement on the other MOD thread in rotor heads.
The problem of cracks and vibrations has been known about since 2010 it says.
Auto-rotation training drives German army light-twin requirement - 6/25/2014 - Flight Global

Following this news from Airbus, what do the NPAS aircraft insurers say about the pilots 6 monthly autorotation training not being carried out down to the ground following the Glasgow crash?
Do Bell aircraft have the same problems carrying out auto's to the ground?
Maybe its time for a change of aircraft, or maybe another new trailer!
