Author: “Hero” pilot….. Date: 3/13/2024 10:30:36 AM +9/-6

HAI (now turned vertical for pathetic drone inclusion) writes article about hero Paradise helicopter pilot who's Bell 407 tail boom fell off in flight. What they didn't tell you was this exact machine spent 20 years doing over gross weight sling loads all over Hawaii, the bolts under repeated stress finally let go.

Also a Bell 430 crash caused by a failed tail rotor repair in house at paradise helicopters.
