This report is a review of CH-37 accidents, incidents, forced landings, and precautionary landings during the period July 1957 through November 1966. During this period, there were 264 mishaps reported. Of these, 29 were major accidents and four were minor accidents. There were 47 incidents, 89 forced landings, and 95 precautionary landings. Review of the major accidents indicated that pilot factors accounted for 48.3% of the major accidents, while materiel failures or malfunctions were responsible for 37.9%. Weather, supervision, and maintenance were responsible for the remaining 13.8%. Selected briefs of mishaps and cause factors are included to illustrate types of mishaps which occurred during this period. Each brief is preceded by a USABAAR log number so that queries may be directed to USABAAR if additional information is desired. It will be noted that many incidents, forced landings, and precautionary landings are recorded in this summary with cause factors not reported. This results from reporting units failing to provide supplemental information as it becomes available. Reports of this nature, without supplemental data, are of little use to the aviation safety program and all units reporting similar mishaps are urged to follow through with supplemental data as soon as it becomes available. This accident summary should be of particular interest to commanders and personnel of National Guard and reserve units now employing CH-37 equipment.
