AAIB for August 2004
AS332-L2 - failure of oil-cooler drive shaft during winching demo; test of HUMS usage in practice. (Nick, what was that about some parts of uprated engines having trouble coping? Report makes a comment.)
Report.
R44 loss of control on take-off - 'cyclic felt strange'.
Report.
Schweizer 269C-1 - tail rotor teeter pivot bolt, fatigue failure.
Report.
No-one hurt, thankfully, even in the last one, where the tailboom was propped on the ground by the time it finished.
