CORRECTION: In the June 2022 issue of ROTOR, we failed to identify everyone in the photo at left. The caption should have read as follows: While in France attending L’Hélico 2022 in May, Jeff Smith (with hat) and Jim Viola (in black shirt) met with (from left) EASA’s David Solar, EHA’s Christian Müller and Thierry Couderc, and Thierry Basset, president of the French Helicopter Group (GFH). ROTOR regrets the error.
