474ever Posted January 17 Report Posted January 17 You gotta hand it to HTS. Luc always had a chummy and fruitful relationship with any government of the time. Can we expect passenger transport in the UH60 next summer? Initial attack on fires? Let the floodgates open. 1 Quote

Make what you want of it. Actually condition 20 confused me, still. it appears to me that condition 20 was written by someone who doesn’t understand the 702 CARs requirements, but I’m not even going there at the moment. I’m sure we’ll get to that in due time. 1 Quote
Whitestone Posted February 7 Report Posted February 7 Tax money well spent, do we really need such a big helicopter for what is probably essentially observation? Let the RCMP fly an R-22! Quote

Let the RCMP fly an R-22! How else would you transport a team of officers in the event of a mass breach in border security? R22s aren’t produced anymore for a reason. Quote
