FH1100 I suggest that you read through what people have written. No one suggested that the pilots were inept or that they ‘screwed up’. You are showing the ignorance that typifies those who do not understand this type of departure.
Highly skilled, qualified and competent pilots can easily lose situational awareness performing this type of IMC take-off.
What a dopey post: maybe you should read (and quote) FH1100's post properly and
then make a comment? My bold, in case you can't properly follow this post.

And I know it's tempting to use our vast knowledge of helicopters to pontificate on meaningless internet forums so we can prove to others how smart we are... But maybe we shouldn't be so quick to judge? My personal jury is still out on this one.
