There's a pic on the local New Straits Times (www.nst.com.my) showing the front part of the fuselage resting on it's starboard side. The rest of the aircraft is in the bushes...

Good show to the crew, and a reasonably moderate report from Bernama as already mentioned. So far nobody here is sqealing about old helicopters and I hope that idea will not be floated on this thread; to many passengers, the 61 is still their preferred offshore transport and it would be a shame to spoil that confidence. Yes it's labour intensive to maintain and expensive to get parts, but it does a good job where Cat "A" performance is not crucial.
