What is it the 225 can do that the 92 can't? Is that important for the customer? If so, then we may well see a return to Aberdeen with the 225. After all, it's actually quite a nice aircraft and it does it job well (Disregarding the one in a million type freak accident)
If it happened again though even after all these additional safeguards, can you imagine the subsequent fall out.
