Fatal Downwash
The risks at a hospital landing site in Plymouth, England, had not been identified before an S-92’s downwash knocked over three people, killing one.
Accident Investigation
No Time to React
The pilot of an aerial survey helicopter was injured when the Cabri G2 struck a Canadian lake’s glassy water and sank.
Missing Ring
A missing lock ring allowed a clamp nut to unthread, resulting in the fatal crash of a DHC-3, the NTSB says.
‘Absolutely Nothing Happened’
Jammed elevators stopped the MD-87 from rotating for takeoff, leading to a fiery runway overrun, the NTSB says.
Installation Error
The NTSB cited a mechanic’s likely failure to correctly install attaching hardware as the probable cause of the fatal crash of an S-61N during a training flight.
‘Disconnected’
A bearing failure in the tail rotor of an AW169 caused a loss of yaw control that led to the fatal crash, the AAIB says.
