New pilot....low time....mission lock.....tragic end to his life.

Notam or no Notam....you don't land on a helideck with something big, solid, and ungiving extending over your landing surface.

This one should be a Lessons Learned presentation to all new hires during their initial training.

I know this is a silly question to ask for the GOM....but....is there no requirement to speak to the rig/platform by radio prior to landing?

If not...why not?

If there is....what happened here?
