Right with you there.
I have stated in several fora that BOTH the S-92 and the H225 are part of a new generation of safer helicopter. The numbers support that. You can cut and slice it and spin it any way you want but I tried to lay out the whole picture.
Do I hate the S-92? No, I love it compared to the S-61/SK because I know how much safer our guys are hanging from it with all that power and those nice new 21st century toys.
What's my beef with Sikorsky? Nothing, other than being able to see through their teflon coating.
(Seahawks in a few weeks: really looking forward to that.
