Funny, overheard the same story last week, winch wire got caught in ship gear on deck, split and hit the -trailing edge- of the main rotor blade. Girl was SIC, nosed down and preparded for ditching but found they had control and headed for land. I 'think' it was in the galway bay area..... haven't seen an AAIU report yet.....
