Anyone else remember the same, and a reg so I can find the accident report? Really to see how far that blade went, and the amount of energy a segment of blade contains...
I'm not familiar with that one, but I do know a Bristow AS332L rolled over while parking on their ramp in Aberdeen in the 90s and one blade embedded itself in teh airport terminal roof (as well as several cars in the car park being hit I think). That's several hundred metres.
