NTSB accident and incident record under N341HP
Aircraft on the NTSB record: Eurocopter AS 350 B3 · serial 3407
The flight instructor’s improper use of the collective control during a practice hovering autorotation, which resulted in a hard landing.
Aircraft on the NTSB record: Eurocopter France AS350B3 · serial 3407
the pilot under instruction's inadvertent activation of the collective manual fuel slide lock, which led to engine and main rotor overspeeds due to excessive fuel flow during power application. This resulted in failures of the gas generator turbine (N1) blades, power turbine (N2) blades, and created an external engine fire. A factor in the accident was the manufacturer's inadequate design of the twist grip slide lock, which had insufficient safeguards to preclude inadvertent activation.
