Is it possible to squeeze nine O&G pax in survival suits in an AW609? The cabin looks pretty tight, and that rear three-across row would be rather comfy, as worker sizes
continue to grow. Moreover, how many of the 609's emergency exits are type IV compliant? Is it just the cabin doors, or also the rear windows?
Re: Bristow, is there really any intent to use the 609 operationally? Other sources suggest this is just a blocking move by BRS to get first in line for the
NGCTR, should it ever happen.
