I have the safety report for this accident. It was a navy helicopter, from HC-5 assigned to the USNS Mercy. HC-5 | |||
I think this may be the flight on a sight seeing trip in the PI flying down the Snake river with passenger's on board. The Helo rounded a bend and flew into a cable slam dunking the aircraft killing all on board. The Crew Chief was one of my instrucrers and good friend, Doug Groll. To Doug and all on board Rip.
