Helicopter Door Falls Off In Flight

Kinda looks like a agressive spray turn over the water which may have caused a loss of reference to height above ground. Definitely had good forward speed when turn was initiated.

 

They will find out I am sure.

 

cheers.

Early 355's only had 1 hydraulic system......

Collective trasparency?

I've been told that's common with astars and twinstars pulling hard-over turns.

Maybe we should start a new thread concerning the AS355 crash in Russia...

 

According to several press agencies the pax on board the 355 were drunk. Nevertheless confirmed is that 1 pilot was found dead, 3 pax and 1 pilot are alive with injuries.

 

We´ll see what the results of the investigations tell us ...

 

kind regards,
