Some unconfirmed sources say that both pilots were ex military so while a lot of rotary time not a lot in semi-rigid and even less in Robinson, together they had less then 60 hrs (again unconfirmed source)
I fly a 66 (that's why I'm interested in the report) and personally if I smell turbulence I slow that b*@#h down, 80 70 knots, I have one life and I intend to keep it.
