EBG R22 rolled at Redhill
An EBG Helicopters R22 was rolled at Redhill yesterday.
Crew believed to be OK thankfully. Aircraft didn't fare so well though.

A question even google can't settle on, 'Is crew singular or plural?'

Can one use crew to apply to a single person? I'm not sure. I am reasonably confident you can use the phrase 'one crew member' though.

Ouch. Glad the crew member is OK.
Seeing this I was wondering whether there is an SB for R22s to have a fuel tank bladder upgrade fitted and if not why not? Not applicable due to different construction; would add too much weight proportionately or smaller volume of fuel typically involved?

Crew is singular, the plural is .. crews.

Crew is both singular and plural and refers to whom ever is driving or serving drinks on a single ship, whether that be one or ten people. Of course I would imagine if it is one person in question they would probably not be serving drinks?

Satcop: good to see piccies like this - another lethal weapon removed from the streets. 
Even better news is that it tried its best but didn't hurt anyone this time.

LOZZ - I believe that new Beta IIs from April 2013 will have bladder tanks installed.
I assume there will be a kit coming out to retrofit onto other models already in the field.

First I've heard of bladders for the R22. and have only seen a very vey small number of them burnt, unlike their big brother.
They which fell so hard that fire and instant Mort for the crew were indisputable.
Most of those hard hitters though have survived fire free.
