Bell Hell Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 Same thing happened to a Great Slave H500 at Pink Mountain, BC, a couple years ago: somebody overflew them right after shutdown and before the blades stopped. Well, the blades stopped alright. But not before the t-boom got smacked at least five times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
