So far it just sounds like they had the best sales pitch.
Well, they might have - but they don't have the possibility to interact with external equipment...
Its not just data from the aircraft - its also data into the aircraft ...
Sounds easy, but isn't keeping flightsafty in mind.
Airbus might have an advantage, having military experience as well.
Its quite a difference getting the whole package to buying just the helicopter and bits and parts around other places.
As soon as something isn't working you either have one responsible or a couple of firms blaming the helicopter or the equipment or the one who did the wireing and so on.
Seen the later one and didn't like it.
Your are not by any chance with one of the competitors of Airbus, who didn' t made the homework to stay up to date?
