wcobra Posted July 2, 2021 Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 This is terrible news! My condolences to his Dad, other Family members, and the YHL Team! He used to come over to my place as a young boy, to talk about helicopters which he was as excited about as I was. When he earned his helicopter Pilot License it was awesome for him and he obviously progressed well. RIP Heath! Daryl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johbros Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 Condolences to all those affected and those knew the crew. Transport just release an emergency AD CF-2021-23 effective 5 July. Must be related to this incident. "During investigation of a recent Bell 212 helicopter fatal accident in Canada, it has been discovered that one of the outboard main rotor hub strap pin, part number (P/N) 204-012-104-005 with a serial number prefix “FNFS”, sheared off during flight, leading to detachment of the main rotor blade and the main rotor head. It has been reported that the failed main rotor hub strap pin had only accumulated 20 hours of service. Inspection of another Canadian Bell 212 helicopter found a main rotor hub strap pin of the same P/N, made by the same manufacturer, with the same serial number prefix “FNFS”, to be deformed after only approximately 29 hours in service.
