On 10 May 2017 a helicopter owned by HQ ditched into the sea while trying to land on the leisure deck of the superyacht
Bacarella, off Bergen, Norway. The deck served as a helipad. The accident occurred because the blast of the helicopter's rotors blew
off the cover of the temporary fuel tank and became entangled in the rotors.
