The R44s and R142s had a massive improvement from 2007. As expected, the R143s and R160s performed the best in 2008.

I'm not too suprised the R160A/B and R143s have a very high MBDF. That's a pretty good report.

lol some of the SMEE's beat the R142A's and the R143's, maybe it's the ADTRANZ propulsion...:confused:

Both Bombardier and Adtranz collaborated on that propulsion system design.
