Norwegian Sector Helicopter crash today
Very sorry to see this news of another N.Sea crash, this one a CHC 225 in the Norwegian Sector.
The oil industry (& CHC if you read Rotorheads) is going through a tough enough time without this latest news.
Initial reports of the main rotors detaching possibly after disintegration sounds eerily like the Bond L2 crash off Peterhead from a few years back. No way back for a helicopter if that happens.
Good possibility that the machine involved today may have passed through or even have been based here for a time in its life. I wonder whether the 225 fleet will be grounded pending the investigation - almost certain I would say.
