BBC News - Shetland helicopter crash: Call to ground Super Pumas
Part of the article.
"All Super Puma helicopters should be grounded after a crash off Shetland claimed the lives of four people, a safety group says.
The Helicopter Safety Steering Group (HSSG) said this should include four different models.
Earlier CHC, which operated the helicopter that crashed two miles west of Sumburgh Airport on Friday, said it would suspend Super Puma L2 flights.
An investigation has not yet established the cause of the tragedy.
Three of the four bodies have been recovered. Police Scotland confirmed 14 others were rescued.
Coastguard authorities say they are unlikely to recover the wreckage in the dark or in current weather conditions.
The HSSG is recommending the temporary suspension of all Super Puma commercial passenger flights to and from offshore oil and gas installations within the UK.
It said it would meet again on Wednesday to review its position, and would reconvene before then if any significant information came to light.
The Super Puma series of helicopters includes the variants: AS332 L, L1, L2 and EC225. "
