## Discrepancy

(CAN) TAKEOFF WAS ABORTED WHEN A LOUD BANG WAS HEARD BY FLIGHT CREW. NR 2 ENGINE SHUT DOWN & A/C LANDED BACK ON THE HELI PAD. ON TOUCH DOWN THE TAIL WHEEL MISSED THE PAD & THE AIRCRAFT CAME TO REST ON THE KEEL JUST FORWARD OF THE TAIL WHEEL. ALL PAX WERE UNLOADED & MOVED AWAY FROM THE AIRCRAFT. THE FLIGHT CREW THEN TAXIED THE AIRCRAFT (SINGLE ENGINE) TO THE FAR CORNER OF THE HELIPAD & SHUTDOWN - TSB HAS ALL COMPONENT RECORDS AT THIS TIME.
