G-HEMS road accident

anyone with the date this took place?

G-HEMS Sa356N being badly damaged in a road accident, when the truck driver got the "low bridge" calculations a bit wrong. One source is quoting it written off, but for the likely impact speed (and the fact it was moving in a straight line, rather than in 3D) I doubt it, frankly. The more-likely-correct report is "tail and boom separated from fuselage after tail too high and hit
bridge" It appears the accident was on or before June 2nd. While this road accident did occur, the damage is repairable and it is already in Inverness being worked on.
