S92 parked "off the airfield"

[NorthSeaTiger]

Really ? Apache had enough ? No other interested parties , wheres it relocating to ?

[DECUFAULT]

Shell Brunei S92A landed off the air field, onshore, due to another MGB hot warning with no oil pressure, they may have had another rash of warning, but I don't know, with some smoke/mist in the cockpit/cabin. Well done to the crew... All S92 in Brunei Shell grounded.

Sikorsky issued this..

Sikorsky Aircraft has been advised of an incident in which an S-92 experienced a loss of main gearbox oil
pressure and increased main gearbox oil temperature. As a result of a previous gearbox investigation
following a similar incident, Sikorsky issued Alert Service Bulletin (ASB) 92-63-008 to inspect the main
gearbox oil dipstick tube for proper length.
Sikorsky Aircraft is working with the customer to determine the root cause of both these events. If any
additional fleet actions are deemed necessary, they will be disseminated to the affected portion of the fleet
by an appropriate Alert Service Bulletin.
If you have any questions, please contact your Field Service Representative or Customer Service
Engineering at 1-800-WINGED S or [phone].
Very truly yours

tick...tock

I think G-CHCK may end up being the third 92 in Miri. I wonder if it's reliability will improve once it arrives

Time will tell..............

Bit of a trend developing in Brunei, I seriously wonder what the common factor is??

Time will tell..............

Makes sense!

[Blackhawk9]

We'll have G-CHCK here in Oz if no one wants her to go with "Alice" (VH-LOH) , I'd be quite happy with a second 92 over a Super Puss.

Whats wrong with a Super Puss

Bristow ABZ

Reject S92 from Aberdeen for Miri? Will this leave any S92 in Aberdeen?

Hear a rumour Bristow's going to get one possibly two S92's at the end of this year

[MyTarget]

And a S92 sim too

Some people have really got their ears to the ground - such new and unheard of rumours. Is that one or two, or twenty one or twenty two? The sim will look nice next to the 225 sim - oh, have I let the cat out of the bag?

[rotor-rooter]

What's all this about CHC and Shell talking about Brunei?

Very interesting indeed!

[chcoffshore]

Really Spill the beans!

[212man]

CHC are providing limited support, alongside MHS, from Miri, as part of the mutual support that exists between BSP and Shell Malaysia. I wouldn't read any further than that!

[s92dcu]

Parked Brunei Shell S92 ready to be lifted back to anduki using Skycrane S64.

[NorthSeaTiger]

So what's happening with G-CHCK ? Is it staying in ABZ or is it going ? Or is it gone already, haven't seen it for a while now !

[steve_oc]

It's in bed recovering from a main gearbox and head change. Back soon.

[Data Dad]

G-CHCK was out of bed and doing ground runs today....

[DECUFAULT]

The S64 skycrane was up early this weekend...lifted the S92 home...again..

[MyTarget]

Is it going or not! Rumours are it will leave ABZ next year?

[MyTarget]
