Nick Congrats
 
Nick,
Sorry to be late to the game. I was on vacation and did not bring my computer!!!
Hope to see you again soon as I will be visiting Bell in May.
All the best and welcome back.
Dave

Cool, Dave. Stop by!

Welcome back, Nick. Maybe soon I'll enjoy flying Bells as much as I now love flying Sikorskys.

Hi Nick.
Hope all is well at Bell, maybe a short revisit to the S92 forum would help a little just now.

Does this mean We can expect to see a 417 or something better??:ok:

Gomer Pylot 29th March 2009 01:55

I would be absolutely amazed if Nick posted anything in the S92 thread. I doubt he's that reckless.

SASless 29th March 2009 02:06

Nick is muzzled by his current employer as part of his employment contract I would bet....not just for this particular issue but in general as he is now an officer of the corporation and thus incurs legal liabilities when speaking in the public domain.

Forget the 417.....perhaps the he can improve the Jet Ranger seats....as if they could be any worse!

Hss Nick left Bell?

That may be so at Bell (if not Sikorsky:hmm:) but surely Bell would not let their employees moonlight either?

Interesting. In the 30 days or so Nick has posted more times here than in the previous 30 months or so.


Parker Ostovich & Associates is a defense consulting firm specializing in the conventional Army and special operations areas of manned and unmanned aviation.
As the Army is such a big Bell customer there must be a conflict of interest there, unless...

...any thing going to be announced at HeliExpo this weekend Nick?

Nick moved on to greener pastures.....wish him well in all his endeavours. For a guy who had problem tying his shoes he has done really well.

Which way will Bell now go in terms of technology & new product development?

SASless 5th March 2011 14:08

Backwards!

Hedge36 5th March 2011 15:33

Where's he gone off to now? This is turning into a sort of "Where's Waldo" pursuit.

squib66 5th March 2011 16:00

See the link (already posted above) NIcholas D. Lappos | Parker Ostovich & Associates
Only his fourth company since March 2005.

Ah, got it. In my pre-caffeinated state I thought... well, I'm not sure what I thought. But with plenty of coffee I'm now up to speed - thanks!

In all of my 37 years playing with this rotary industry, the long stretches of hangin' the arm out the wndow doing routine stick work and very many short bursts of sheer terror, piano playing or whatever, this statement has got to go down as the under statement of all time.


For a guy who had problem tying his shoes he has done really well.
Thanks Sasless, I'll remember that one for a while.
