I believe Westlands still have a couple in 'surplus stock'. I wonder if Black Friday sales apply to Merlins :-)

Coincidently Malcolm said this exactly a year ago after a Nigerian incident had a similar result!

I'm guessing that we can expect to see it back at Yeovil on a low loader in a couple of weeks.

Did the Nigerian AW101 come back for a rebuild?

From the description of the fuselage damage I've read in translated Norweigan articles I wouldn't be supprised if it's a write off. Maybe a case of full parts recovery back at Yeovil and a new airframe.
