which of course was mostly the fault of the woman in the car
I thought your assessment was an incompetent pilot?

My assessment is the pilot fluffed it for some inexplicable reason, perhaps the bounce, coupled with the new seating position, and it just got away from him. Agree with Piltdown Man that "Something else happened here". The Tigers trim is not one that imposes untoward resistance. Just another case demonstrating the fallibility of we humans, Human Factors by name.

JS, be interested to hear the story of how you came to be in the position re your off field snow landing. Another human factors and human fallibility story. Only every operated helos in snow, and all was off airport.
