link leads to govt. statement that the engine had 250 hp.
Nope.
DOM 1971, which would, yes, be an A model. Haven't flown one for 47 years, thankfully. Not much power for the AUW.
Perhaps an autorotation to what appears an obstructed roadway. Walk away is good landing. |

Having done both jobs exclusive of one another, I generally agree with your sentiment. However, the NCSHP takes training very seriously (every pilot gets Bell training every year). If one news report of a bang before the crash is accurate, it seems the pilot did a good job of mitigating the damage. Whatever the case it seems a bit premature to blame the crash on "cop mentality" |

Owning shopping carts is not a wise financial decision. It is better to lease then thereby avoiding the tremendous devaluation which occurs as soon as you take them off the lot..... I see what you did there. It was a rhetorical question. Who would neeed more than one? |
