Farest: They don't need to know torque theory. They do know that suffocating engine intakes - stops engines - stops the drive to the rotorblades.

I have a team of RFFS under me and they are stunned that these guys stood there and watched two pilots die.

According to the NTSB, the Astar helicopter is an advanced aircraft and requires an experienced pilot to fly it. They are still reviewing witness videos.

Interesting. I wonder what they would make of an Apache / S92??
