Spoke to a pilot many years ago at a HUET-course, that got his first job in the GOM flying Jetrangers. On his very first day at work, a cover for a fire extinguisher on deck flew up into his MR just like in this accident and he ended up ditching next to the platform. All on board exited safely from pure luck, as this was before HUET was common.
