Seems to be a 206L.
Are these popular for trainers?

Oh oh. Looks like someone forgot to bolt the skids to the fuselage.

A case of Senior Officer syndrome, perhaps?
"You have control!" (he! he!)

So based on the pics can this helicopter be repaired or is it a writeoff?

According Helihub.com Reg nr. is S3-BMK
According Rotorspot.nl S3-BMK is w/o (written off)
I could not find conformation of this elsewhere on the web.

And the accident reports of helihub.com are pretty good up to speed.
