Accident & incident history

2017-06-27 Accident · Boulder City, NV Damage: Substantial Minor injury NTSB · WPR17LA133
Reported aircraft: Eurocopter EC 130 B4
Probable cause: A loss of engine power due to the failure of the manufacturer to reinstall the oil filter after it was removed for inspection, which led to coke pollution that obstructed the oil jet and resulted in the subsequent oil starvation of the axial compressor rear bearing oil and its subsequent failure.
