IanB 0 Posted April 8, 2009 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 Just home yesterday, few people were a bit skitty about the flights this last week, scotia and bristow are now covering for BP flights, Bond are not flying for BP for the foreseeable future... Could take awhile to find out the reason for the catastrophy ... http://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/Article.aspx/1158811/ http://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/Article.aspx/1157877/ Hopefully any findings will make it safer for everyone travelling in the future... Thoughts go out to the families who have been left devastated by this tragic event.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stevolad 26 Posted April 8, 2009 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 We used to use the Puma's but changed to the Sikorsky S92, bit like a flying mini bus, more comfortable and meant to be more reliable but that's yet to be proved!! Still any amount of delays up off Shetland. RIP lads Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IanB 0 Posted April 8, 2009 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 Stevolad we use the super puma mk2, same as the model involved they have been reliable up to this date, maybe a one off... were waiting on the new model next year... Been some bad press lately on the sikorsky choppers http://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/Article.aspx/1152048 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
