The investigation of the recent Super Puma helicopter accident has, to date, not identified any evidence of a causal technical failure. Therefore, at this stage, the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), that has regulatory responsibility for the design of the helicopter and the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), that has responsibility for the safe operation of the UK helicopter fleet, have no evidence to suggest that there is an issue that should lead to the grounding of the Super Puma model. However, both organisations will continue to monitor closely the investigation as it progresses and take what action may be necessary.
