Well, me being Helicopter Marshaller and Pilot, flying from time to time a EC120B, would seriously want to know what happened.

The harness topic, is one of those things that came directly into my mind from last year. We had the Swiss Helicopter Championship in precision flying. I was hooked up to a fixed harness. No way to unscrew it myself.

Being as well member of the board for the Swiss Helicopter Federation, the safety for our helicopter ops is our utmost concern. We got our yearly assembly end of April. If we can issue certain learning, recommendations to the Heli OP in Switzerland, this will be great.
