Hello

Ok i feel the need to get involved since Scatsta is only 20 miles north of my house.

As Puma-Boy say's; Its not the first time that a helicopter has rolled in and around Shetland in windy conditions.

Here is What happens when it rolls on a Heli-Deck on a Ship just off the coast of Shetland.





Quotes from that incident "the crew were very lucky to escape more serious injuries" - this was said after it was revealed that the co-pilot suffered a broken leg after being hit with debris from the rotors.
Cheers,
Shetlander
