Even a Notar has a tail boom. The incident report shows a Bell 206. SmartA$$

NO a helicopter can't lit off with out a tail rotor.

Is anyone else experiencing issue's with this forum. Over the last 2 weeks i have had issue's signing in and the site is extremely slow in some cases.

I mean to say that they lack experience. What does a typical Metro FO have today? 250 hours? Not even enough PIC to get PICUS. What does a typical Metro captain have? 1500 hours? Maybe less if it's run 703 or cargo? So an FO that doesn't know what he doesn't know and is mostly along for the ride; an...

You CANNOT let the plane get ahead of you it will kill you. The beauty of the F18 is you can eject. You have to ride ...

Truly amazes me how insensitive people are on this forum. Not even 24 hours and people are being armchair investigators.

Makes me sick.

The lake at the Lac De Gras winter road camp is runs North South. I am thinking the hit the hill on the North end. You can google earth 64.25'06.02N 110.06'36.11w. That will show you the area.

Don't get me wrong i have nothing but respect for these guys. Let's not forget they picked this job and get trained and paid to do it.

What year is this?

Maybe this person has a time travel machine.

Maybe they didn't use Mayday because they didn't see the situation as being life threatening. The recording i heard was the pilot stating they depressurized. What does Mayday stand for? Mayday is the word used around the world to make a distress call via radio communications. Mayday signals a life-t...

Summit a few years back outside of Cambridge bay

Nothing to speculate. It was CFIT

One think if there was fire there was fuel. Never seen a fire without a combustable feeling it.

Go to this topic. viewtopic.php?t=187308
