Big push to get EC225 back to work from everyone who was affected by the grounding. It is taking some time.
Better to have an idle L/L1/L2 than an idle EC225 (most of which are leased not owned - thus you pay if you use it or not). EC225 lease payments for 6 months is probably worth the same as the total $ value of an L, 10 months for an L2.
Secured revenue against a cost (leasing the EC225) is better than a $ write down on an owned asset (most of the L type fleets came from a time before leasing was the flavour of the month).
