Sikorsky’s S-92 Helicopter Gets Real-time Health and Usage Monitoring System

A Sikorsky S-92 flying to an offshore oil platform on March 7 became the first aircraft to use a new real-time health and usage monitoring system (HUMS) in commercial service. The aircraft, operated by PHI Inc., is fitted with new technology developed by PHI in partnership with Sikorsky and Metro Aviation that the companies say is a major safety breakthrough.
