Built in the USA in 2005 and delivered new to the UK as G-CDUE on 24 Jan 2006. W/O at Peterborough Business Airport on 11 Sep 2020. The helicopter was caught by a gust of wind as the pilot lifted into a low hover, which resulted in a rapid yaw to the right. As the pilot attempted to control the yaw, the tail rotor struck the ground. The tail rotor and boom detached. Registration cancelled 04 Jun 2021.
