Offshore precautionary landing in Norway

The crew of a Sikorsky S-92 performed a safe precautionary landing at the unmanned Yme offshore platform in the North Sea during a routine crew change flight earlier this afternoon. The helicopter was heading from the Valhall platform to Stavanger with 12 passengers and two crew when it was forced to land due to an illuminated cockpit warning light. A SAR Sea King of the Norwegian Air Force had to hoist the stranded passengers and crew from the Yme platform since the helicopter deck was blocked by the S-92.
