I think calling the passengers "jibbering ballast" and " outrageous views of the ignorant" is really going too far. If you don't agree with a point, that's fine but don't start insulting those you disagree with.
I think the real problem with the Puma family is that it was hated before any of these accidents. The level of discomfort in the back is unreal, especially when this has to be endured for 2 to 3 hours. Only those that have endured this can understand the problems of getting up and trying to walk, especially if you are in the facing double seats on the starboard side. This could greatly impact your ability to get out quickly if you had too.
All those that keep saying what a fine helicopter this is - travel for a few hours in one and then lets hear your views. Throw in the fatal flaws and the aircraft is finished.
