Safety record

Accident & incident history

2012-08-31 Accident · Bath, NY Damage: Substantial Minor injury NTSB · ERA12TA538
Reported aircraft: Bell 407
Probable cause: The pilot's improper recovery from an in-flight upset, which resulted in the main rotor striking and separating the tail boom. Contributing to the accident was the helicopter manufacturer's failure to warn pilots of unanticipated and unequal aft cyclic pressure in the single-pilot configured helicopter compared to the dual-pilot configured helicopter, which resulted in the in-flight upset when the pilot momentarily let go of the cyclic control.
