To Martin 1234: Yes, Copterline was caught of flying under minima once. Captain of that flight got a 6 months suspension for his licence and the co-pilot got a warning from the FAA (as far as I know). And half of their fleet has not crashed. Only half of their fleet of S-76C+ have crashed and we don’t know yet what caused this accident. As far as know the company has 8 choppers left, some of them working as rescue helicopters.
That 99,7% dispatch rate in incredible. Especially considering their timetable. Basically they fly an 18 minutes leg followed by an 18 minutes leg after being on ground 12 minutes(schedule time 20 minutes, flight time 18 minutes). Here’s their schedule:
