NTSB accident and incident record under N6188L

LAX05TA018Accident on October 25, 2004 at Tucson, AZ: serious injuries, destroyed.

Aircraft on the NTSB record: Hughes OH-6A · serial 891257

The loss of engine power due to a fatigue fracture of the PC line from the governor to fuel control, resulting from fretting damage induced by excessive vibration, which was due to the failure of maintenance personnel to install the proper bearings in the starter/generator. A contributing factor was the loss of power at low altitude and airspeed (height/velocity limitation) which diminished the possibility of a successful autorotation.
