NTSB accidents & incidents
Operated by GULF COAST HELICOPTERS INC (per NTSB report)
The AA-5 pilot’s failure to maintain separation from the 182T during approach and landing, which resulted in a ground collision during the landing roll. Contributing to the accident was the failure of the AA-5’s electrical system, which prevented the AA-5 pilot from communicating with other aircraft in the traffic pattern, and the AA-5 pilot’s poor judgment that the electrical system failure required an expedited landing when a preceding airplane occupied the runway.

Operated by GULF COAST HELICOPTERS INC (per NTSB report)
