Defence IQ endeavours to ensure accuracy wherever possible, but errors are often unavoidable. We encourage readers to contact us if they note any need for amendments or updates. We accept no responsibility for the use or application of this information. We suggest that readers contact the specific government and military programme offices if seeking to confirm the reliability of any data. 1 MARKET OVERVIEW Broadly speaking, the global helicopter market is currently facing a two- pronged assault. The military helicopter segment has been impacted significantly by continued defense budgetary pressures across most traditional markets, and a recent slide in global crude oil prices has impacted the demand for new civil helicopters as well as the level of activity for existing fleets engaged in the offshore oil & gas exploration sector. This situation has impacted industry OEMs significantly, many of which had been working towards strengthening the civil helicopter segment to partially offset the impact of budgetary cuts on the military segment. However, the medium- to long-term view of the market is promising given the presence of strong fundamentals and persistent, sustainable growth drivers. The market for military helicopters in particular is set to cross a technological threshold in the form of next-generation compound helicopters and tilt rotorcraft.

However, the Bureau fully recognises that the implementation of recommendations arising from its investigations will in some cases incur a cost to the industry. Consequently, the Bureau always attempts to ensure that common sense applies whenever recommendations are formulated. BASI does not have the resources to carry out a full cost- benefit analysis of every recommendation. The cost of any recommendation must always be balanced against its benefits to safety, and aviation safety involves the whole community. Such analysis is a matter for the CAA and the industry. ISBN 0642 193959 June 1993 This report was produced by the Bureau of Air Safety Investigation (BASI), PO Box 967, Civic Square ACT 2608. The Director of the Bureau authorised the investigation and the publication of this report pursuant to his delegated powers conferred by Air Navigation Regulations 278 and 283 respectively.

A mountain guide had requested rescue for an exhausted client unable to continue. The guide was anchored to a block. Both clients in succession were tied a few metres below him. The lowest client was also anchored to a block. A rescuer was lowered from a Lama onto the ridge to evacuate the client between the guide and the other client. When the rescuer and victim were about to get hoisted, the guide noticed his rope laying over one of the packs hanging from the rescue load.

As compared with its neighbours, it had a relatively larger population, a better developed techno-industrial base and a higher oil production rate (second only to Saudi Arabia). After the 1973 Arab-Israeli war, the excess of oil revenues as a result of the oil price increase was used to convert the Iranian oil wealth into a sizable military machine.
