I was reading a update notification from rotorspot today and noted the below info
-C-FKVR B412EP 36704 To USA; reserved as N7994B
-RA-04108 AS55 AS-355F2 5434; not cancelled
-RA-04339 R44-II 13110; w/o
-RA-05796 R66 0537; w/o
+RA-05823 R44 1021 Ex N71977; ex EW-406LH
-RA-06233 R66 0484; w/o
-RA-06239 R66 0504; w/o
-RA-06354 R66 R66 181; w/o
Regarding the R66 this sounds a lot of accidents where the airframe has been written off , is there a underlying problem

maybe the RA on the tail is a clue? Look at youtube and there are some examples of the ''flying equal to driving in russia''
One of those tail numbers in your post belonged to a somewhat ''youtube celebrity'' and with the ''neat'' stunts he pulled of, I am not surprised of the statistics.
