Monthly Safety Report

As of:  07 Oct 2019

The USHST is a regional partner to the International Helicopter Safety Foundation. 

USHST GOAL: Reduce the fatal U.S. helicopter accident rate by 20% by 2020. (0.61 fatal accidents per 100,000 flight hours).  USHST Vision: A civil helicopter community with zero fatal accidents.

The USHST works closely with The Helicopter Safety Alliance to perform its OUTREACH to the identified high risk industries (Personal/Private, Helicopter Air Ambulance (HAA), Commercial and Aerial Application). The next Helicopter Safety Stand-Down is 18 October 2019 in Louisville, KY!

Did "YOU" Know?

Each year the U.S. helicopter industry safely flies more than 3.2 million flight hours and every second of every flight must be handled with professionalism. The USHST encourages aviation safety professionals to review NTSB accident reports to review the Accident Analysis, Probable Cause and Findings. (Note: NTSB Preliminary reports are posted within 15 days)
