Safety record

Accident & incident history

2023-07-21 Accident · Terra Alta, WV Damage: Substantial Serious injury NTSB · ERA23LA307
Reported aircraft: Bell 206
Probable cause: The pilot s inability to maneuver the helicopter for recovery after experiencing a strong, unanticipated tailwind in a confined operating area, which resulted in a descent and subsequent impact with terrain.
1996-08-13 Accident · Starks, ME Damage: Substantial NTSB · NYC96LA167
Reported aircraft: Bell 206B
Probable cause: the pilot's improper decision to operate at slow airspeed, and close to the critical relative wind azimuth area in gusty, variable winds, which resulted in an inadvertent loss of tail rotor effectiveness. The gusty crosswind and lack of a suitable terrain for a landing were related factors.
