I witnessed the accident from the ground. As the aircraft descended below approximately 50 feet it started spinning. After the third revolution the aircraft was making some very large pitch oscillations. It hit the ground as described in a previous post very near the helipad on the Bravo Taxiway between the turf and the Echo Ramp.

At least two ENG aircraft were on the scene before rescue personnel who responded very quickly.
