Don't get excited. That's not a Royal Air Force Puma.

A bit of a shame that seeing accidents floats your boat, as it were.

Hey fella,

Don't flash, we're all tired! I know it's not an RAF Puma, and seeing crashes doesn't float my boat either. Just thought I'd post it because it was an interesting vid.

When I wrote 'boat' I meant collectively for the RN.

It is French Army Puma, while on tactical training mission for the Anti-Terrorist Elite unit GIGN of the Gendarmerie.
The pilot impacted the tail rotor on landing and then the beast went into a spin because of no more anti-torque....
It scared the s..t out of the squad inside !
