Birmingham,
Our passengers that we transport to the rigs are a suspicious bunch. Some were scared to fly in a red helicopter after the bond accident regardless of 92 or 225. There needs to be a lot more interaction between operators and passengers. I know that my company has gone some way to solve this. That said i was stuck offshore with a faulty sensor and was asked about the 225 gearbox modification. The poster explaining this was straight outside the guys office door and he had never looked at it. When i explained it to him he seemed a lot more comfortable being flown in a 225. Education is the key if the 225 will fly again. Lets wait and see what happens in the investigation.
