NTSB accident and incident record under N449MC
Aircraft on the NTSB record: Robinson Helicopter Company R44 II · serial 13340
The pilot’s failure to maintain adequate rotor speed while maneuvering at low altitude, which resulted in a descent from which he was unable to recover. Contributing to the accident was the pilot's decision to conduct the flight at or near the helicopter's performance limit, which precluded recovery of the rotor speed in sufficient time to avoid the accident.
