"They" most certainly do, but I am sure that no announcements will be made until "The fat lady sings".........

Have a nice day

I heard that Carson's had bought them along with 2 maybe 3 from CHC.

Anyone else have an idea?

PS. it's Brunei Shell (Petroleum), not Shell Brunei

Rumor has it that the BSP 61's are in great shape

Washington Times Aviation of South Korea will most likely bid heavily on the BSP machines. WTA already purchased qty 5 S61's from MHS Aviation Malaysia and are in the middle of a major refurbishment program.
The Moon's are behind Washington Times, so I doubt they will be outbid.

They haven't gone yet. I'd stick with UL's theory, not the WTA one.
