As that part of the world is my old stomping grounds I was interested in the accident. Didnt know the guys but that does not make it any easier. I also understand its not the first EC-120 to have similar problems.
Whats ironic is the fact that I have heard from some who have seen factory demos of some serious training autorotations done by factory pilots, that the aircraft is normally quite survivable during engine out operations from a variety of speeds and altitudes. Would like to know more why this ended in such a tragedy.
