It's a bit of a setback for the operations of the majority of Canada's CH-148 helicopters. All but two of the long-awaited Sea King replacements have been taken out of service because of cracks recently found in the tail sections of the aircraft. The exact cause of these stress fractures isn't clear, but one Defence analyst says in some ways this shows the maintenance and inspection processes are working.
