Ross just made me aware of this, but surprised that I saw nothing of it on the news, or even googling it. Last thing that they needed at present.

Ross' platform - some of my colleagues were there only last week whilst I was on the Alpha.

Not good at all - just when the EC225 is about to be re-introduced into service.

One is getting flown out to my current location (Jade/Resilient) on Tuesday for a Q&A session with the crew on board - a good effort to win hearts & minds IMO :thumbsup
