as helipads, private landing sites and natural landing sites. Also, a helicopter has different
aerodynamic and handling characteristics from aeroplanes. All this is reflected in the
different accident characteristics.

‘Passenger’ air transport operation is the main type of operation involved in fatal accidents
of third country operators. Most fatal accidents of EASA MS aircraft (13) involved helicopter
emergency medical services (HEMS4). This represents 39 % of the total number of fatal
accidents for helicopter EMS operations worldwide. The category ‘Other’ includes cargo and
air taxi operations.
In the last decade 26 helicopters involved in fatal accidents worldwide were performing an
offshore flight (flights to or from an offshore installation). These accidents are included in
Figure 3-8.

3.2.3 Accident categories
For this Annual safety review, the accident categories have also been assigned to fatal
and non-fatal helicopter accidents involving EASA MS operators. An accident may be assigned
more than one category.
Over the last years, the Agency has continuously attempted to reduce the share of accidents
classified as ‘Unknown’ (UNK). An effort was made in order to obtain additional accident
data. In comparison to the Annual safety review 2008 the number of UNK has been
reduced to two accidents, see Figure 3-9.
The category with the highest number of fatal accidents assigned is CFIT (‘controlled flight
into terrain’). In most cases adverse weather circumstances were prevalent, such as
reduced visibility due to mist or fog. Also, several flights had taken place at night or over
mountainous or hilly terrain.
‘Loss of control in-flight’ (LOC-I) has the second highest number of fatal accidents assigned
and the third highest number of total accidents assigned.
‘Low altitude’ (LALT) accidents are collisions with terrain and objects that occurred while
intentionally flying close to the surface, excluding take-off and landing phases.
The two categories addressing system or component failures and malfunctions are SCF-NP
and SCF-PP, for respectively non-powerplant and powerplant failures or malfunctions.
The accidents in both categories mainly involve engine, main rotor system, tail rotor system
or flight control failures or malfunctions.

The ‘Other’ (OTHR) category is assigned when the accident is not covered under another
category. The accidents in this category mainly involved accidents during take-off and
landing phases where the main or tail rotor collided with objects on the ground. Helicopters
often operate in confined areas close to obstacles. Also, in several accidents the powerful
rotor downwash resulted in serious injuries to people on the ground or caused loose objects
