From: To: "[email protected]" <jeevacationggmail.com> Subject: S76 update Date: Tue, 13 Jul 2010 15:59:30 +0000 this is Marc Poland's response to my email, Hello Larry. I'm far from a radar expert, but clearly the record of failures in this system has been problematic. Knowing Rich, I suspect he has already fed the issues up through his chain and over to Honeywell, but I will join the chorus and ensure that the problem is visible and being tended to at the highest levels appropriate. I've added (on cc above) the S-76 Chief Engineer (Fran) and Program Manager (Tim) so that they can anticipate a need to hit their respective contacts at Honeywell in addition to those that Rich may have used. As for bringing the a/c to our WPB plant, if that is deemed by those working the troubleshooting to be helpful, I have no problem endorsing it. Regarding the flight on the 215t, it sounds as though you have already scheduled the AAG coverage. In response to the prior message traffic (a day or two ago), I've communicated to AAG the advance authorization to bridge the delay in flowing to them the coverage agreed under the 750 contract amendment.

Mr. Epstein wanted me to inform you of a on going problem we are experiencing with 750. The MFRD unit has failed four times. I have a new unit installed at this time, but was informed by Rich Wellman (field tech support), that he recommends waiting for direction from Honeywell. I have been out of service for 7 days now, with no real direction or remedy in sight. I am willing to bring the Helicopter to your West Palm Beach facility to properly trouble shoot the system and wiring with your technicians, if you are able to set this up for me. We have already trouble shot the wiring for the MFRD with your fie
