Mark Stuntzner has worked as a failure analysis engineer, accident data analyst, and air safety investigator for more than 25 years. He has represented Bell in accident investigation activities at vendors and official labs, including engine runs, component teardowns, CVR/FDR downloads, and failure analysis laboratories. Mark has investigated over 220 Bell accidents across five continents, including U.S. military, foreign military, law enforcement, and civil customers. His investigations have spanned diverse missions such as offshore oil exploration, HEMS, passenger flights, powerline patrol, agricultural spraying, forest fire support, and more.
