Does anyone knows what happened with a AW-139 operated by Heliportugal during a ferry flight from Italy to Portugal?
I heard an strange history, apparently the main rotor hits the WSPS due a strong turbulence?
Would be nice to know what realy happened.
Cheers
Hi!
I confirm the same info from an Italian tech. I was told about 5000ft/min. of vertical speed in seconds... due to turbulence when in south of Spain.
