Four crew members lost their lives when the Sikorsky S-92 aircraft crashed into Blackrock Island, in the early hours of 14 March, 2017

.

Two years on from the crash, investigations into the incident are continuing and there are ongoing efforts to implement a number of recommendations made after the incident. In addition, all life jackets issued to Coast Guard personnel have been updated by the manufacturer and returned to CHC. This followed concerns over the manner in which safety beacons on the jackets were activated.

While a progress update would usually be provided in relation to ongoing investigations once a year, the AAIU said this would detract from the work of finalising the report into the causes of the crash.
