I've never seen a machine that suffered static roll over and ended up with a broken tail like that one?!?! Tail rotor blades are bent as well and they are far from the ground!!! Did anyone talked to the pilot or someone who doesn't want to cover up what really happened or is the rollover story just hearsay???

Would be surprised if the company operated that machine with only one pilot...

Puma's are very prone to roll over. High center of gravity.... but doubt that it was the case in this one...

Evergreen has them as well for whoever wanted to know.
