I left the Puma force in 97 and know of at least two fatal accidents directly attributable to the lack of anticipators prior to 94. There were a number of incidents that involved minor damage (certainly to pride) not least a certain display at a Shawbury graduation in 88 when all the ex-Puma instructors were seen heading for the door as the alternators tripped offline and that tell tale shudder as the autopilot dropped out!
