This is one of the most remarkable threads - for being so utterly unremarkable.
It seems to be perpetually on the verge of delivering titillating gossip, yet it fails deliver with every new posting.

According to the website below there are 123 R44's to choose from IF it was an R44. Did the airfield clear the wreckage with a crane?

Anyone have an up to date database? How many R44's are registered in the UK?Was the Sherburn mystery a/c a write off?

The above information, kindly posted almost 2 weeks ago by 'robbyrandom', should greatly assist Cabby to narrow down their meticulous forensic research into which of the 123 possible R44s might be at the heart of this mystery.......
Do call back to let us know when you've narrowed it down to the top 10 suspects at the top of your list, Cabby!

Not sure why the mystery and lack of information on this incident.
normal person, a businessman, makes a stupid mistake and rolls the heli. Could have been avoided easily. was he not told to wind the throttle off when on the ground if you need to take hands off or just dont take your hands off at all. Surely it wouldn’t have rolled over if it was wound back to 50-60%? Common sense tells you not to leave the machine at 101% and start messing round. All round avoidable. police apparently caught up with him but he had managed to throw back 2 pints by then. have a picture but unable to post as not a regular poster on here.
disclaimer: rumours obviously but quite accurate I am told.
