Pleased you changed the tone of your post Smokey. For a moment I thought you were trying to get talent-spotted as a tabloid headline writer. (I've changed the topic title to match your new version)

From a reliable source:

Incident happened as the owner was in the process of landing in his garden.
Not mechanical failure
Not loss of tailrotor authority
Pilot uninjured
The Gazelle is a write-off
AAIB has been told what happened and do not consider it necessary to investigate further.


Brother
Why not restrict them to R22's - well-known for their "benign handling qualities."
