There was an accident I believe in the early 80s before RADALTS were mandatory. The crew essentially descended gently and unnoticed until the helicopter hit the water. Quite a few fatalities. It was hazy with no horizon.

I am not sure if the aircraft in the image is the subject helicopter though.

AAA website should have the accident report.
