Possible Downed A/c

[Fenestron]

get your head out of your a$$. thats a pretty retarded remark to make. Nobody is happy to makes sales under those conditions

[wheels of steel]

i second that remark, head is way too far up there!

[jetbox]

Eurocopter must be estatic. Now yhey get to sell another new one to the guy and the insurance pays, and we all pay through higher primiums.

 

Eurocopter is pre-sold until 2008, I don't think they need anyone to have an accident to make sale!

 

 

 

DUMBASS!

Well said jetbox..... I find it hard to believe that any manufacture be it Eurocopter, Bell or the rest of them would rub their hands with glee every time one of their helicopters is destroyed

Alright TT2 has been put in his place.

 

Does anyone have confimation on the crew?

[Roo]

Crew is allright.

 

Appartently 3 on board going to pick up two more when the tail hit a tree and rolled into the creek.

Ok maybe the word estatic was wrongly used.

Oh come on now. The main thing was that no one got hurt. Its just sheet metal. I'm sure that the comment was passed at the manufacturing level after they found out that they were not liable. Give your head a shake. Its not always a win win situation out there in the real world. Someones lost is sometimes someones gain. When you break down I don't see the competition coming over to give you a hand to fix your machine. You break down the customer calls them. Its as simple as that. I once worked for a guy who laughed when the competition lost an A/C. I told him not to laugh because that could happen to use. Well guess what. A few weeks after I quit my replacement wrote one off too. I don't wish anything bad on anyone in this industry. Its a bad omen. Just because you might be competition one day doesen't mean that you won't be working together the next.

Dont worry Lamabubble I think he was just responding to the tongue lashing he got for an earlier comment. I am also curious as to whos machine it was.

[Fenestron]

just saw the pictures

 

my question from an environment standpoint is, what do you do with all the spilled fuel in a fast moving river like that? Surely you can't contain it and the damage must go quite a ways downstream. Who's responsible for cleaning, or attempting to clean/ fix that?

[skullcap]

There is a clause in the insurance for cleanup and removal of crashed aircraft.
