The purpose of the evaluation was to: (1) Evaluate the overall crashworthiness of the basic aircraft structure. (2) Determine the existence, if any, of features which could lead to unnecessary exposure of crew members and passengers to serious or fatal injury in the event of a survivable-type accident. (3) Make recommendations for remedial action in the areas where deficiencies exist in order to improve the overall crash safety aspects of the aircraft. The above work was accomplished through a detailed crash injury evaluation of the entire aircraft, its components and equipment, and supported by discussions with members of the Vertol engineering staff and reference to technical manuals and military specifications. This is the final report on the crash injury evaluation. (Author)
