The bulletin says that St. John’s-based Cougar helicopters decided to shut the aircraft down and restart it, but the light remained on.
A spokeswoman for Cougar says a company technician was brought to the oil platform by a second helicopter on Wednesday, and the passengers were taken back to St. John’s.
