Accident · substantial damage
Oct 25, 2019 · Jordan Valley, OR
A partial loss of engine power due to a worn engine air induction hose, and a subsequent uncontrolled descent into terrain. Contributing to the accident was the failure of maintenance personnel to adequately inspect the hose, and the pilot’s decision to fly the helicopter at a speed and altitude that provided limited time to enter and establish an autorotation following the loss of power.
These match the airframe or engine model. Whether each one applies, and whether it's been complied with, depends on serial numbers, equipment and logbook entries. Applicability must be confirmed by a mechanic against the aircraft's records.
