Report on S92 G-LAWX published: here (https://www.gov.uk/aaib-reports/aaib-investigation-to-sikorsky-s-92a-g-lawx)

AW109SP suffers bird strike, windshield destroyed, neither crew hurt: here (https://www.gov.uk/aaib-reports/aaib-investigation-to-agustawestland-aw109sp-g-taas)

And a general warning - I passed my final test on 2nd August so watch out for an R-44 flying erratically. OK, even more erratically.

Yes, I second Crab's sentiments - very well done Hilico. Never has a student put in so much effort in getting a PPL (H) - truly admirable commitment to understanding every aspect of what you are undertaking as a helicopter pilot. May you have many happy flying hours!

Thank you. Sincerely, it's the closest I have come to meditation - you forget your self entirely. There's no 'am I apprehensive', or even 'am I happy' - the concentration is so intense I am just 'in the moment'. My respect for the professionals increases with every minute I spend in the air!
