Light Quad
A four engine helicopter! A Quad?
STOP PRESS: National Parks & Wildlife have made a bulk purchase of Gen Helicopters. Rangers will now travel in flocks, swooping in to fine unsuspecting regular type choppers that have landed illegally & left horrible skid mark scars on world heritage sites.

Think you'll find that's pilot, co-pilot and a flight engineer, then they say you can fly it as high and fast as you want.
With the current issues with military aviation, our MoD are also considering it as a possible replacement for the heavylift fleet of Chinooks...

Heard a rumour that instead of training more pilots etc, CHC have an order in for 500 of these things and the rig workers can then be more flexible when they go to and from work. Believe a night kit is planned so night ops (SE private cat.) can be carried out.
