The USHST continues to work on the implementation of 16 Helicopter—Safety Enhancements (H-SE) developed through data-driven analysis of 104 fatal accidents. The H-SEs use Outreach, Policy, Technology/Equipment, and Training in an effort to reduce fatal accidents from the leading occurrence categories of Loss of Control—Inflight (LOC-I), Unintended Flight into IMC (UIMC), and striking objects during Low Altitude (LALT) ops.


In the U.S. there are 12,000 + helicopters, 32,000 + helicopter pilots and over 292,000 aircraft mechanics!
