Very sad alright a god awful heavy impact and one in which a more than normal curiosity is raised,
to wit;

Richard Dunk, from the Stockshop warehouse at Lancaster Way Business Park, said he was having lunch with a colleague when they "heard a bit of a bang".
"I turned around and saw the helicopter coming down with a lot of smoke coming out of the back."
I wonder if a radar trace is available to help with investigations?

The helicopter pilot had been talking as a matter of routine to our air traffic control as it passed Cambridge Airport."
