Accident & incident history

1992-07-28 Accident · Hayfork, CA Damage: Substantial Minor injury NTSB · LAX92LA319
Reported aircraft: Bell UH-1B — a different aircraft that carried the N89NW registration before this airframe.
Probable cause: THE FAILURE OF THE MAIN ROTOR DRIVE SHAFT DUE TO THE IMPROPER INSTALLATION BY COMPANY MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL OF AN 'O' RING SEAL, WHICH ALLOWED THE PACKING GREASE TO ESCAPE AND CAUSED THE OVER TEMPERATURE FAILURE OF THE DRIVE SHAFT. A FACTOR IN THE ACCIDENT WAS THE LACK OF SUITABLE TERRAIN IN WHICH TO PERFORM AN AUTOROTATION.
