    Probably a 300. The white 300 I used to shoot out of got mistaken a few times by angry farmers for a white r22. Quite handy having the police looking to ID a white 22 when we had a 300! 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.
