I sort of remember that. I was at North Denes on the Wessex 60 at the time. I am not sure if it was an autopilot thing but Ben Breach (RIP) got quite badly burnt in the crash. I think it was on a test hover but that was 40 years ago and the memory aint as good as it used to be. Sadly it was Ben who lost his life in the Wessex off N Denes which signalled the end of the Wessex for Bristow
