Basically it says it was due to intense fog. The aircraft was just 70hours old. I´m starting my CPL on September and this crashing rate really bothers me(as i´m spanish).

My thoughts go with them.

It was a Bell 212 with more than 20k hours TT.
Well experimented pilot and low time copilot. It seems like they found bad weather. it is a rough mountainous place with powerlines crossing valleys.
