Home Ground: Helicopter Down

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

An investigative programme from BBC South East continues the series featuring some of the best documentaries that have been shown by the BBC nations and regions.
The helicopter crash that killed Chelsea Football Club vice-chairman Matthew Harding in October 1996 was just one of 45 fatal crashes in the last ten years, which have claimed the lives of 90 people in total. His widow Ruth has stated that she would never recommend that anybody travels in this type of craft. This programme evaluates safety measures currently in place, and investigates allegations that the air industry's regulations are not stringent enough.
