On the matter of spin, you will no doubt remember your very last post:

In response to your question:

If the Blackhawk is so good, then why don't Sikorsky sell them to Civil Operators?
You said:

Late eighties they had that idea, the operators did not like the short ceiling (Hawk had to packup transportability reqt). Make it a "fat hawk" they all said.

It is now known as the S-92A.
Black Hawk experience was used in justification in the S-92A certification according to TSB-Canada in their report on another preventable accident.
