you can't avoid what you can't see. The corridor is narrow so likely no signif bank angles to clear the area., Reports now say the Piper hit the helicopter with the right wing. The helicopter was in a blind spot for the Piper and behind the helicopter the helicopter pilot couldn't see it.,
Ths is true, it is the cause of so many accidents, blind spots kill. Always clear your blind spots...
