CH-34 and CH-37 Accident Summary
Abstract
This summary was prepared to help commanders at all levels, aviation safety officers, maintenance officers, aviators, and related aviation personnel to prevent future accidents and preserve combat resources through a review of past CH-34 and CH-37 mishaps and their cause factors. The term mishap, as used in this summary, includes accidents, incidents, forced landings, and precautionary landings, as defined by paragraph 7, AR 385-40. Information presented in this summary was taken from accident and other mishap reports submitted from all Army commands during FY 1967, as required by section IV, AR 385-40. Aircraft losses or damages which were the direct result of hostile action in RVN are not included. Each mishap brief is preceded by a USABAAR log number so that queries may be directed to USABAAR if additional information is desired. Information on Modification Work Orders (MWOs) was extracted from Department of the Army Pamphlet No. 310-7, U.S. Army Equipment Index of Modification Work Orders, April 1968. Technical Bulletin (TB) information was furnished by USAAVSCOM.
