  • Black Hawk helicopter crash in Colombia

    An UH-60 crashed last friday in Colombia during a take off from a military base, 10 people were aboard, nobody got killed. Here is the video of the accident, seems like the helicopter suffered a "stall" and crashed back to the ground:

          Hey, if this was New York and he came down on the LIE, they would have found it on blocks and stripped.

          Reminds me of the Jackie Stewart (among others), comment that you should look where you want to go, not at what you don't want to hit. If he was 40' left I wonder if he may have maintained flight?

            Or perhaps ...

            "I told that groundskeeper to take the Black & Decker and trim the hedges not the Black Hawk! .."

              The groundskeeper did trim the hedges...he was taking the piss and trimmed one in a black hawk shape...
              Didn't fly, no one died...he said he was sorry.

              You already know these suckers are designed to take a slap on the ground...don't know if the seats are sprung though...could jolt the spine.
              Looks like he freaked and pulled the nose up trying to lose the ground effect and tail struck the ground?

                    Yes, all seats in the eggbeater are designed to absorb x g's downward accelleration in a prang (16g's? rings a bell somewhere). A big advance over the UH-1H.

                      Probably you don't have the "plug-in" for that kind of video installed in your PC
