That's all well and informative, LeadSled.
But had you have been simply a happy pax sitting in the back of Richard Green's EC135 the other day? (Just before you also died?) Surely your immense flying experience would have led you to tap your pilot on the shoulder? (That's before you all took off again.) I've done so and have been known to simply walk away from these sorts of situations.
But your typical pax is so much more trusting. And they rather sadly die in these sorts of accidents.
