Thumbs down Bristow 412 Accident

I heard that a Bristow Bell 412 had a meeting with the "Tommy Craighead" yesterday . Unsurprisingly, the TC won and the Bristow machine now has a newly modified small diameter main rotor system.
Thankfully the pilot and all passengers were unhurt and landed on another rog close by
Bristow do not seem to be having a good time in Nigeria at present and are becoming a shadow of the company started by the man whose name they bear
