Glad to hear everyone walked away.http://www.pprune.org/forums/images/icons/laugh.gif

anyone know which of Sid's R22's it was?

Looks like G-RIAT. .

Glad all are safe.

Most importantly ,very pleased that they are both OK .

Much less importantly , sad to see my first helicopter (G-RIAT) in that state.Owned it from new for 3 years before going to an R44. Hope it is repairable.
