This 300C had its tailrotorblades striking the ground while in flare on a auto pratice causing the shaft to twist and disengage, then it took a 180° spin before it came to rest.


needed to be slingloaded for 2miles in no wind condition and the 206 had to be right on its limits to be able to lift it up


funny though it was the same pilot who flew the Huges and then picked it up ... yes its good manners to clean your mess up
