Living here on the coast of Norway I see and hear helicopters nearly every single day.
Not since 1978 have we had a disaster like the one that happened on Friday, when 13 people lost their lives!
Newspapers, radio and TV have been covering the tragedy where a Super Puma EC225 crashed just outside Bergen, on it's way from the "Gullfaks B" platform.
The loss for family, friends and colleagues is devastating!
For Statoil and other oil companies, safety has been, and will be, number one.
All helicopters of the same type are grounded until they have found answers to why this happened.
In 2015 there were more than 600.000 passengers travelling to and from platforms here in Norway.
