Dear All
As we are waiting for the final report , and modification / inspection-cycle or change of manufacturer of certain parts: How many ac are effected ( Norway and UK)
And what have the operators done.
I have followed this thread with great interest , but have little grasp of the local , regional and worldwide consequences for the SuperPuma.

I do compare this with the rudderhardover that B737 did suffer long time ago.
It is do or die, but they found the likely cause and did a good fix!

Anyway, I understand the Norwegian NTSB are mostly respected for not bowing to undue external pressure.

At the end of the day: we can never have main rotors depart without warning like this again. Your part of aviation is inherently more challenging than airliner ops is , never mind the wings going AWOL.

Regards
