Also contributing was the lack of any final acceptance testing criteria for the dampers in the manufacturer\u2019s overhaul procedure manual.","registration":"N345MH","state":"MO","summary":"Accident on May 26, 2012 at Chesterfield, MO: no injuries, substantial damage.","type":"ACC"}],"num_engines":1,"other_names":"","plain_english":"N345MH is a Schweizer 269C-1, a rotorcraft with a piston engine (a helicopter or multicopter), built in 2004.
