I suggest that everyone should take a deep breath,and relax,then read the report,before crucifixion of the pilot.
Don`t see it says anywhere that the pilot was Spanish ,or ex-mil FFS ! he was transiting from somewhere to base with 8 pax; there was a major problem,and he did a forced landing...unfortunately,the a/c skidded and turned over;;;however there were no injuries....
The reasons for the EOL could be many,just as the reasons for the a/c turning turtle are many,f`rinstance,size of `field`,approach path into same,what height did it all go wrong???
It doesn`t matter whether he was a civvy or ex-mil...everyone can screw-up,or have a technical failure at the wrong time/place,whether you are fighting fires,criminals,weather,or the Taliban.....!!


Gordy,that statement begs the question..have you been in the Mil..?

Anyway,it`s obvious isn`t ; he was flying No.13....
