A number of serious airworthiness issues were identified with the helicopter during the course of the investigation. None of these issues could be directly linked to the cause of the accident, but did raise concerns regarding the way the helicopter was operated. Given the number, complexity and severity of the issues found and the fact that they are common to a number of other fatal accident investigations conducted on foreign-registered aircraft in the UK, they will be covered in detail in a separate Safety Study report.
Does this mean the CAA might take another look at foreign-registered private helis. What are the benefits of an "HA" registration anyway?
