I see FH has his anything-Bell bashing reputation to uphold.
Surely if Bell had introduced an all composite fuselage, with soft-in-plane composite rotor and carbon blades he would have slammed them just the same for building something so expensive and out of touch with the market. The NRE and certification of a new dynamic system and blade would have probably doubled the cost alone.
I can hear it now "Why would I want to pay $3 million for a tarted up AS350? You can put a G1000 in anything! What is Bell thinking, nobody is going to buy this disaster."
