Safety record

Accident & incident history

1998-08-08 Accident · Juntura, OR Damage: Substantial NTSB · SEA98GA159
Reported aircraft: Bell 212 — a different aircraft that carried the N291B registration before this airframe.
Probable cause: The pilot-in-command's failure to maintain proper clearance between the long line cable and hell hole structure resulting in airframe contact and binding of the cable. This resulted in separation/disabling of the fuel control solenoid and a subsequent restriction/cessation of fuel flow to the #1 engine. Contributing factors were separation of the #1 engine push/pull rod and a tree.
