2025 Events

The information given below for 2025 is for transparency with regard to the accident statistics in the report. The ICAO Annex 13 definition of an accident has been the nominal benchmark for definition of events. Where available, the investigating agency’s assessment has been used. Brief descriptions are given only to help outline the event and in no way attempt to summarise all the relevant factors. Accidents are almost always complex events with many factors and as such the accident report, where available, should be treated as the definitive description of the event and its causal factors. In some cases a CICTT occurrence code is attached based on available information and where no further detail is expected. The CICTT definitions for flight phase are used.

These tables summarise the data as understood at the point of release of the report (April 2026). HeliOffshore members can find more information about the events included in this report in the Accident and Event Database.
