Here’s a couple post of the flight data and comms.
If it”s accurate and you know what to listen for around that airspace it paints a picture of a single pilot flying a Sikorsky S76 under SVFR helo rules when IMC conditions likely existed.

Having flown around there for years with multiple types of aircraft, and using a “special” Naval Instrument rating (0-0 takeoff and landing mins beyond FAA published mins.The joke was always that anybody with a “special” card was smart enough not to use it) and having run or reviewed for endorsement multiple mishap boards, I have my initial opinions but the mishap board will determine the most likely cause.

He’s ‘scum runnin” around the airspace in bad weather and not flying IFR. He’s in a superb executive commercial helo.
