Note the third paragraph in the cover letter for the attached Helicopter Safety Advisory Conference (HSAC) 2021 Safety Review (dated 2/10/2022), particularly this sentence:
There is a trend of doing more with less, for example decreases in the numbers of helicopters across the board, yet increases year-over-year in passengers carried, hours flown, and number of flights conducted.
The 2022 data will not be pretty. Clearly there are issues to be addressed.
