Swartz blames rotor crack for journalists' deaths in crash
Minister Swartz said a crack in the tail rotor caused the Bell 204B helicopter crash near the Barracouta Oil Rig in Bany Strait, killing three journalists and injuring seven. He defended the investigation, noted no weld or public-relations motive, and urged an open inquiry while criticizing on-site safety practices.
