Photo Comment

Previously operated in Japan as JA6133, this AS350 came to Canada in 2007, operating in Quebec with Helicraft 2000 (2007 - 10) and Héli-Excel (2010 - 14). Pictured with Access Helicopters (May 2014 - June 2015), it was exported to the USA as N160SH. Last flying with Alaska Helicopter Leasing from 2018, the aircraft suffered an engine flame out approaching a mountain helipad at Tuxedni Bay, AK. The helicopter rolled down the mountain after autorotation. Only minor injuries to the pilot, but the machine was a write off.
