Narrative:Crashed October 12, 2010 at Long Beach Airport, Long Beach, Los Angeles, California: during a Low level training exercise, the right skid snagged the ground causing the helicopter to imbalance and turn over onto its side. According to the official NTSB report into the accident:
"The certified flight instructor (CFI) and student pilot were practising hovering. The student pilot had 6 hours total flight time, with all of his flight time being accrued in the accident make/model helicopter. During the hover, the right skid contacted the ground and the helicopter rolled onto its right side. The CFI reported that he delayed assuming control of the helicopter and allowed the helicopter to get too low during the maneuver.
Probable Cause: The student pilot's failure to maintain an adequate drift control and skid clearance from the ground and the CFI's inadequate supervision while hovering, resulting in dynamic rollover."
