Haven't seen this incident reported on any previous thread:
https://www.atsb.gov.au/publications/investigation_reports/2023/report/ao-2023-002
"ATSB is investigating the forced landing involving a Bell 206L-3, registered VH-JSU, 100 km south-west of Deniliquin Aerodrome, NSW, on 9 December 2022... During aerial work, the crew heard a loud bang and the aircraft banked to the left, resulting in the crew conducting a precautionary landing. Post flight inspection revealed that the right forward pylon support link had fractured..."
This sounds like a fortunate outcome given the ATSB description.
