twinstar_ca Posted March 5, 2021 Report Posted March 5, 2021 hope all recover ok... hard to tell from the pic what kind of machine... jet fuel all over would lead one to believe a turbine but hey, we know how accurate the press can be... Quote

Whirlybird Posted March 6, 2021 Report Posted March 6, 2021 The way it is spinning in the video it could be LTE or short shaft failure. 1 Quote
GrayHorizons Posted March 6, 2021 Report Posted March 6, 2021 when i heard about it yesterday about an hour and a half after the accident, the guys i was with were getting info there was some really nasty sounds happening. I dont have any 212 experience myself, but years back Canadian had one go through a tail rotor output quill failure with similar results. Quote
th3M Posted March 7, 2021 Report Posted March 7, 2021 You can replace the machine. I’m relieved to hear the crew are ok. 3 Quote
