More news about the Indiana PHI EMS Crash

http://www.theheraldbulletin.com/cnh...adpicturestory

Weather at approximately 0200 CST was supposed to be 400 overcast with 21/2 statute miles visibility. Aircraft was airborne for approximately 6 minutes before finally finding a place to alight. Pilot was quoted as telling the dispatcher...."We'll try it."

The article has a very interesting description of the final portion of the flight....it is a "must read" article.

Coming on the heels of the NTSB report on US EMS crashes.....this is not going to help matters any at all.
