Close, but no cigar. West Coast Helicopters needlessly crashed a twin Squirrel in Perth many years ago (operated for WA Police). From memory, landing down wind at a school oval and running out of puff and bouncing it at the bottom. Caught fire. Made for a good photo on the front page of the morning news.
