In Texas, a crash of a Safari resulting from loss of tail rotor has been
reported. Whether this means loss of tail rotor or tail rotor control is
still a question I have.
Also a Fatality crash in S. Africa of an Aerokopter with pilot and two small
children. All died.
Getting the causes of these crashes distributed to all of the helicopter
community is important to help avoid repeats.
