Mee3......putting Lipstick on a Pig doesn't change anything as it is still a Pig.

There are certain mechanical failures that must be seen exactly for what they are.

There have been plenty of explanations why a failed Main Shaft in the Main Gear Box is a far more complex and dangerous issue than merely losing drive to the Oil Pumps.

As we have learned from the loss of Rotor Systems because of such failures should make that abundantly clear even to the most obtuse amongst us.

This is not another argument about the various merits of the 92 compared to the 225 as a few wish to make it.....this is all about a failed design of exactly one kind of MGB that kills people.

I suppose there are some that attend here that think by clicking some Slipper Heels together and making a wish that all will be well.....but that is not reality.

The reality is the 225 is DOA....dead on arrival in the Oil and Gas Industry.

You can make like a River Dance on Steroids but all the Heel Clicking in the World is not going to change that.
