Yes, I know more...

Prism is an excellent organization, who go to great efforts to assure the best quality helicopters and maintenance. The attitude of DZ, the owner, is one of safety and quality first. Their training is incredible, and they go to great effort to assure recurrent training is thorough and effective. I have taken training there on two different occasions, and received my MD500 type endorsement there.

If you're going to fly, every now and again it's not going to work out as planned. I would rather think of the team at Prism not as having suffered a crash, but concentrate on all of the operations which they have completed with safety and success over the years.

They will pay this unfortunate event the necessary attention, and grow to continue their great operation. I'd send my family flying with them any day.

My thoughts are with the Prism team.
