    Raven70H ^ I have to imagine that was largely pilot error.

    hurleyjonathan Don't know I'm an A&P and CFI, new helicopters scare me. I like to be able to see patterns and trends. Here's a good question, why kn ow SFAR 73 for the 66. Same Head, rotor blades, etc. Just a turbine, and a few minor difference.
