Been following this accident from a great distance for quite awhile. Easy to have missed this, but the question that keeps me thinking about this is, "why did this helicopter depart on the mission with so small a fuel reserve?" It seems that modern technology encourages fuel planning to the last drop. Numerous accidents have shown that this is fraught with peril.
