Rocky Mountain Helicopters Inc.; crashed at Bridgeport, CA, during EMS operation : the aeromedical evacuation flight was made at night over mountainous terrain. The pilot interrupted his normal position report and broadcast « mayday » 3 times, giving his position to a company dispatcher. He did not state the nature of the emergency. No further communication was recorded. Witnesses in a southbound auto saw the helicopter flying toward them from the South. They stated the helicopter’s fuselage started rotating counter-clockwise. It then veered to the West, went out of sight, and crashed. All major components, except about 33 inches of the tail rotor drive shaft and its #5 bearing, were located. The tail boom was found in three sections. Rotational and longitudinal scoring damage was noted on the tail boom in the vicinity of the #3 and #5 bearing supports. A lab report stated that the rotational damage occured before the gross deformation of the tailboom and subsequent in-flight breakup of the helicopter. 4 killed.
