Unfortunately another Hughes 500 came down yesterday in Panama.
Gold Mine Company, their own ship. Unfortunately the Pilot bought the farm.
No details yet - Anyone interested I let you know as soon as get facts.
This helo eas flying a lot of hours, but supposedly the maintenance was okay.
Lots of sling load.

Was a nice bloke, condolences to the family.....
