Members of the United States Helicopter Safety Team (www.USHST.org) will be providing their safety advice for Heli-Expo participants in Dallas at 17 different workshops – – the highest number of presentations its members have ever provided at Heli-Expo.
The USHST promotes safety and works to reduce accidents through a government and industry cooperative effort that has resulted in a 27 percent decrease in U.S. civil helicopter accidents since the organization’s inception in 2013. During that same time period, fatal accidents have decreased 43 percent.
