An individual got out of his B2 near Milford to do something and rumour is the wind got it, but thats only rumour. That sort of accident, out in the mountains away from sight doesnt usually make it into the papers down here 
For what its worth I can confirm that Milford Helicopters had a B2 roll over with no one at the controls about a week ago as I know few people who went in there to help fix it up.
There is a point about leaving the machines, there have been a few helos lost here in last couple of years, I can count at least an EC120 that slid down a hill without pilot of pax.
