Chinook

VictorPilot. Well said. There are too many folk on this thread who are determined to divert attention from the basic fact that this crew flew at high speed and low level, well below any safety altitude, towards and then into hills that were clearly IMC, and failed to turn away. For example, a recent Post suggested that perhaps a fly in the cockpit, or that the crew (both pilots?) suffered an itch, and that this might have caused /contibuted to the crash.
Perhaps it would help if experieced pilots (and I am one), rather than general S***-stirrers, made their background clear?
Do come off it some of you!! With all best wishes to those who look objectively at the facts, JP.
