They don't have them............so far. If they ever start using stingers or the like you can bet the civilian helicopter presence will decline over night.

:lol: That cheered me up.

More to the point my Lying Friend. ( no insult intended.....I was referring to the club) Open and honest communications from the management of a major Canadian helicopter company!!! By the Jeez I wish I could get our guys to be more like that.

Nope. He's right, and it was successfully kept very quiet so as not to worry potential employees.

Our hearts go out to you bud. They are feet dry now.

Well..............the problem with flying for the Military is that they have these pesky things they like to call.......................orders. Which means no matter what the weather or the risk if the boss says you are going.........................................you are going. And if there happens to be missiles and bullets involved it can get a little risky. Also it is a long slog to build time as they just don't do as much flying.

So just out of curiosity. Have any of CHL's 212's been involved in any altercations with the insurgents? Any unservicability issues due to a brass up with the Taliban? Anybody been hurt yet?
