I heard a "rumour" from a family member that there was a helicopter accident in Colleambally, NSW recently (not sure how recently).
Having worked for a bloody good chap there, and being the only Ag operator with a helicopter (Bell47) in the area, I was a little concerned by the news.
Am not sure if the helicopter was from there or merely met its demise en-route, and whether the accident was "serious".
If anybody has any further information I would really appreciate knowing - given the title of the forum, thought it was a good place to ask before launching in with both feet and contacting the outfit at a potentially difficult time.
Thanks,
FO
