Safety record

Accident & incident history

2006-11-26 Accident · Brownwood, TX Damage: Substantial NTSB · DFW07LA027
Reported aircraft: Bell BH 206L-3 — a different aircraft that carried the N805SB registration before this airframe.
Probable cause: The fracture of the turbine-to-compressor coupling and subsequent overspeed failure of the first stage turbine wheel as result of the improper re-assembly of the engine by maintenance personnel. A contributing factor was the lack of suitable terrain for the forced landing.
