sling 0 Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 any prediction on when would it happen at Robinson helicopters...? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
212wrench 149 Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Since it came from the result of the loss of the ARH-70 contract to the US miltiary I doubt if it would affect Robinson. Layoffs can come from the economy and no business will be immune to that. http://www.bizjournals.com/dallas/stories/...27/daily31.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest SidewallPuncture Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Robinson also has a product replacement scheme in the works.....just check out the FAA accident stats anytime and you'll see why they are the top seller of all time...they crash them as fast as they build them. It's one big never ending loop. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ame206350 12 Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 calling for???? That confused me as well. I guess the guy works at Bell? OR did the layoffs at Bell somehow shut down production at some shop somewhere for some unknown reason? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AH1 5 Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 I guess they should all go to Sikorsky. They can work on the Cyclone project for decades and never actually produce a helicopter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
