R22 accidents since Cabri certification

GS-A


The Cabri was certified at the end of 2007 since when , according to the US NTSB database, there have been 225 R22 accidents resulting in 46 fatalities.

Foreign registered aircraft are shown but I spotted at least one UK fatal R22 accident that was not shown. The actual total may therefore be somewhat greater.

Looking at one of your earlier posts on this thread you do mention that of the 7 R22s which you have flown, 3 have been written off and included a fatality. An overall 43% accident rate and a 14% fatal accident rate does look overly impressive.


As you say in your earlier post, perhaps you should give the Cabri a try so that you can judge for yourself.
