Eurocopter has nothing to do with AgustaWestland :)
And I can't imagine EC has any use for an old Bölkow?

Result of the test: all systems are working correct. A/C lost some weight in the back, so dudes we can transport more beer then before :drinking: :) :D
A standart test with a unusual result! I knew this video before, and I like it very much! It's really fun.

No information about the destination of the Bo?

They might not have any use for it, but sometimes old planes (or helicopters) are bought back, just to make sure they don't end up at the second hand market. The less old planes/choppers there are on the second hand market, the more new ones are sold.
