Safety record

Accident & incident history

2007-12-29 Accident · Venice, LA Damage: Destroyed Fatal injury NTSB · DFW08FA053
Reported aircraft: Bell 206L1 — a different aircraft that carried the N211EL registration before this airframe.
Probable cause: The pilot s decision to continue to the destination landing platform in weather conditions below the company s weather minimums and his failure to maintain aircraft control during the approach. Contributing to the passenger fatality and the severity of the occupant injuries were the lack of a passenger briefing on how to deploy the liferaft, which was required by the company but not by the Federal Aviation Administration because this flight was not an extended overwater operation; the pilot s failure to deploy the liferafts; and the company radio operator s misreporting of the helicopter s  landed status, which delayed the rescue response.
