I work at the FBO at Flying Cloud Airport which services |
| |
this helicopter. I'll try to get a current picture of it, |
| |
but no promises. I'll also note that my boss (the |
| |
incompetent line manager) managed to extensively damage the |
| |
rotor blades last year when he attempted to push it out of a |
| |
hangar on skid wheels. He pulled down on the tail too far |
| |
and the front of the aircraft rose up enough for the rotor |
| |
blade to come in contact with the hangar door and lodge |
| |
itself on top of it. The right skid wheel collapsed, and he |
| |
pulled the aircraft back, furthering the damage on the rotor |
| |
blade. It caused well over $50k in damage and the helicopter |
| |
was out of service for about a month or so. |
