Ogden Utah

The crash happened in Ogden Utah at Mckay-Dee Hospital. About 4500ft and about 5 miles from 9500-10000ft mountains, first flight to that hospital in that machine, with the DO in the copilot seat and a experenced pilot flying the A119. He just did not have much time in the A119 (delivery flight only). It was a MX issue not Vortex ring state, we are just seeing the end of what amounts to an autorotation. Makes for interesting viewing though. They all ended up with compression fractures of their backs. The Flight nurse is still in litigation. Fly Safe
