AHRS AND RA FAILURE ON EC 155 B1
HELLO FOLKS
Does any one has any info on frequent AHRS(Attitude Heading Reference System) and RA failure on EC 155B1.
RA failure leads to Wx Radar failure........
Is this happening frequently on EC 155 B1fleet ?Any specific reason for it? Any engineering input and analysis on this is welcome......

My boss really wanted an EC155, so he calls me up and tells me that he really wants an EC155, and asks me to look into into it, I discovered that around here, the EC155 can barely lift itself off the ground and costs twice as much. We now have an Agusta 109SP, which also sucks big time, lack of TR authority, avionics are a constant problem, lot's of QC issues for a new aircraft, and lotssss of vibration, around here they call the SP the living dead. But at least it will get itself off the ground.

So what is the aircraft of choice in the light-medium corporate twin category for performance, operating cost and without having to land at a service centre every 15 hours (as with the EC155)?
