Anyhow tragic story. There was a similar accident Opotiki way in the 90's involving a r22 caused by tail rotor issues, I think the engineer ended up sharing a cell with Bubba.

yes- bogus tail rotor parts - I believe done in Singapore - just freshly painted used parts sold as new - I think it was the owner went away - flew with him a few times in a 300
