Narrative:
Following a loss of engine power, an Agusta-Bell 206B JetRanger II sustained substantial damage in a forced landing on the Fitties Beach, Humberston, near Cleethorpes, Lincolnshire. The three people onboard were uninjured.

A Maritime and Coastguard Agency spokesperson said:

"At just after 2.30pm today - Friday October, 15 - a Humber Coastguard received a report that a light aircraft with three people onboard was forced to make an emergency landing at Cleethorpes Beach, near Grimsby in North East Lincolnshire. All three people onboard the aircraft have been reported safe and well, and arrangements are being made to recover the aircraft. Cleethorpes Coastguard Rescue Team and Humberside Fire and Rescue Service are present at the scene."

The main visible damage to the helicopter was a broken tail boom. By 16:45 recovery efforts were underway, and the helicopter was towed away by the Maritime and Coastguard Agency on the back of a trailer by 17:20 LT

9 trips in 9 days done 70 miles walked and over 23-00 photos taken with a large number taken at 20mph or above. Heavy rain on 1 day only
5 trips done and 45 miles walked,. Also the RAF has had 4 F35B Lightning follow me yesterday and today....
My plans got altered slightly as one of the minibus companies had to cancel 3 trips and refunded me but will be getting nice discount when I rebook them.
wondering why on my "holidays" I choose to get up 2 hours earlier than when going to work. 6 trips in 6 days soon coming up with 3 more days to sort out
