AW139 vs S76C+/++ Customer/pilot feedback

Hi there,

Could I please get some feedback from existing customers and operators on the overall support, satisfaction and the serviceability rates of these choppers in the offshore industry?

For operators/pilots that have/or are flying both types, what will be the preferable offshore machine in the future for this category?

Regards,

CJ, Abidjan

Mmmm ...


You are probably familiar with the 139 which is powerful, quiet and its air-con super-efficient (read "Arctic"). What else do you find interesting ?
