The Chinook, a helicopter that has had decades of trustworthy service and is still is was effectively wiped off the North Sea and the international O&G patch because of a fatal accident as a result of a gearbox failure.

They solved the problem by stepping back a little. Perhaps Airbus could step back to modifying the 330/332 gearbox arrangement.
