See this hit the newspapers earlier this week in the Beeld (front page) and Citizen. The pilot that died in the R 22 crash over the weekend could have survived but due to the fact the ceo of Helimax had pulled the aircraft and fired the pilots the poor individual died! Talk on the block is that there are now court cases looming from medical aids, smells bad to me

Whats funny is that RT (ceo) has denied firing the 6 pilots in the news reports but the pilots are out of work and hunting around for new employement, stinky one this, spoke with one of the pilots yesterday and it seems this one is still going to get rather ugly, don't blame them at all, spot on Canthover, doomed from the beginning as so many predicated

As for the Eurocopter man, a lucky escape out of the Helimax outfit and well removed from the RT factor whom are fast getting bad reputations in the industry
