Default Canada to order replacement for the Sea King

Finally! Canada to place an order for the replacement of the Sea King.
Two companies are in contention, the original manufacturer of the EH-101
that was cancelled a number of years ago and an American company.
According to news reports the cheapest bidder will have the inside track.
Delivery is not expected for about four years. The duct tape manufactures
must be ecstatic as a BIG order will have to go in for that in order to keep
the aged Sea Kings flying until the new choppers arrive. ;-) The Red Green
duct tape techs still have a life!
Hang in there RCN! Things may be looking up!
