I have only just heard of the crash from this Forum six days after the accident, and saw no mention of it on the news in the UK. I flew 17 years for Bristow on the North Sea from Aberdeen, 13 of them on the S76.
However I am now 75 and was medically retired in 1993, so none of my colleagues are still flying. Although I did not know the two pilots my thoughts go to their family and friends, I had many nasty moments myself over the years, even more so during my seven years flying in the War in Oman, so count myself fortunate to have survived to retirement.
Cheers
