Vliegongeval: "I'd rather be lucky than good"...

Post by Stratofreighter »

...want hier zou je je op grote hoogte nooit uit redden... :shock: :shocked!:

NTSB Identification: WPR13LA243
14 CFR Part 91: General Aviation
Accident occurred Saturday, May 25, 2013 in Wenatchee, WA
Aircraft: HILLER UH-12E, registration: N99090
Injuries: 1 Minor,1 Uninjured.

Time for him to buy a lotto ticket!


...of niet natuurlijk, nadat de piloot heel veel geluk verbruikt heeft... :wink:
The pilot reported that after takeoff, about three miles away from the airport, he heard a loud noise above and behind him.

He elected to return to the airport, during which, he heard the noise a second time.

Upon arriving in the vicinity of the airport, the helicopter descended to a hover about four feet above the ground.

Suddenly, the helicopter fell to the ground and the pilot observed the main rotor head and rotor blades spinning about 400-500 feet in the air above him. :shocked!:

The blades descended to the ground and came to rest about 300 feet from the helicopter.
