109 power

Can't remember the exact date but around 2 or 3 years ago one 109 power coming from maintenance to its working base in Madrid as HEMS crashed. As result the only pilot on board died. Witness man in agricultural job around the scene decribed: " helicopter started to do strange things near the ground and finally crashed oppsite direction than it was flying". I flew to the scene and thought that for a helicopter with no contollability, what a great job the pilot had done trying to bring it down!!
After all this time no results on investigation but we all think in the same cause than you are discribing in previous meesages. So sadly I have to say you were forgetting to add this accident to the others you discribe.
