Yes, I am hearing that it was the helicopter of Mike Beckers.

That is the second Hughes that he has lost, but of course these mishaps do not stop him from winning the accolades of his industry, such as the “Captain John Ashton Award for Flight Standards and Aviation Safety by the Guild of Air Pilots and Air Navigators of London.”

"Captain Becker’s school has achieved an unrivalled 18,000 hours of accident-free flight training".

Somehow this seems to be ignoring his first Hughes write-off, where fire was consuming the machine.

I'm trying to do the arithmetic that will tell me when in the future his school will actually have done 18000 hours of training, but my little calculator doesnot have enough numbers.
