A pal who flies FW at Wycombe told me that he'd heard of another heli crash just to the west of Lane End (which is just inside the heli circuit at Wycombe when flying on 24). Apparently, the helicopter ambulance was scrambled (lives nearby at White Waltham). Presumably this was the same incident. Unusual to see a Hughes 500 at Wycombe. Anyone know anymore, who owns it etc.? Are engine failures on a 500 more commonplace than on other small helis?
