When was that Megan and what were they flying? I don’t remember either of them.
27th January 1979 I winched five from a ditched Bell 205, cause one main rotor blade yoke had fractured leaving the blade attached only by the tension torsion strap causing excessive vibration.
The other.

You might note the comment re hypothermia in the report bearing in mind it was December ie summer, not the middle of winter. The same aircraft UHP was used in both rescues.
