Hannes Arch died in R66 crash

Apparently he was supplying alpine Chalets with his R66 when he crashed yesterday around 22:15 (NVFR ).

He got his license from the same school as I. School uses only S300Cs for training, although there is/was an R22 among his fleet.

Will be very interesting to read the accident report to find out why a renowed plank air racer, someone managing high risk tasks as part of his life, failed to survive his R66.
