He is at least consistent in his opinion.
What really gets to him is the 92 continues flying in all the oil patches and his favorite ride has become financial drains on every operator that owns or leases the 225.
Evidently the licensing authorities, operators, AND the customers see things much differently than does HC.
Yes you are right about the financial drain, wrong that my view differs from the authorities, operators and customers right now. As I've just said, I think it is correct to keep the aircraft grounded until the cause and solution are implemented.
But whilst of course the weakest link in the chain dominates, in many other ways the 225 is the far better machine, from the pilot's point of view at least. But of course you wouldn't know, you haven't flown either machine.
