Can't say I agree with you on that. At least initially they were tearing themselves to pieces in flight due to poor track and balance. I've never seen a blade flying so far out of track on an S76...

I bet you had a few steam gauges changed in the other 14,000 hours! Yeah, I don't remember an IIDS screen failing, either Rogerson-Kratos or the Parker-Gull. Push button automated power checks in the...

In that case it couldn't be a Macau C+ as they were still using them at that time. The Macau C+'s are the only ones I've seen without IIDS.

Was the Norsk C+ ordered like that new from the factory, or did they buy one of the flogged-out Macau C+'s?

....I'm surprised there are pilots out there doing an initial on a C+. AW139 has been death by a thousand cuts to the S76, especially the older models of which you mentioned.

No. IIDS was standard fit on S76C from about March 1994. As it was for the C+ later. The Macau helicopters were ordered with analog because they were spooked by the Rogerson-Kratos IIDS operational...

What's the big deal with sharing the serials? The only C+'s I know of that were delivered without IIDS were those ordered by East Asia Airlines in Macau. IIDS was standard but they optioned the...

I do have pictures, but it's a state of turmoil at the moment and I'm not game to post them just yet. 2 Super Puma and a S76 at a China Rescue base in submarine mode also. So that's at least 6...

Not in China. Hardly ever recondition or buy used anything. Always buy new.

If you had a S76C cabin, could you rebuild it from all the good parts from a C++?

Curious whether a S76 which is immersed in salt water to about windscreen level would be a write-off. We have two 76's and a 92 floating in the hangar.

I've never known it to be rearwards, we've always climbed vertically to TDP (from memory: 60' in S76C+ and about 25' in S76A/C). It is a long way down vertically from 60' in a C+ for OEI rejected...

I can't answer the particular question, but I note the manufacturer has put the nose mounted VTA back on the C++ as standard (like it was for the A, but not B/C/C+). Regarding a track/balance being...

I haven't seen let alone flown an A-model for over 10 years. I guess Canada still has a few about because it's cold there for most of the year. There's probably not enough remaining to make it...

I didn't know there were any A-models left flying anywhere! Interesting to know that there are still some old ladies out there still burning a living.
