Canadian Cormorant hoist conditions limited
According to the Canadian papers, due to injuries sustained by personnel training on Cormorant (Canadian EH101 derivative) the ambient conditions under which its hoist can be used have been limited to warm sunny days with a gentle waft [ok not really but...]
Do European EH101s use the same hoist?
