Question for Cp pilots: Why fly a helicopter - which doesn't have to maintain any certain airspeed in order to stay up - 180+ mph when you can't see? Why not hover or at least move forward extremely slowly until you get some better visibility? And don't they have radar/crash avoidance systems? It just doesn't make sense.

Too many instances of this.

Both Buddy Holly's crew and Patsy Cline's were offered free rooms and meals to wait until adverse we as ther cleared, but they all wanted to quickly reach their destinations...

My 2014 Grand Cherokee has crash avoidance, so I would presume a helicopter used by Kobe would be at least similarly equipped. Isn't there some type of siren that goes off before you go careening face first into a mountain?

If not, let's you and me start a business.

We call it "get-home-itis." Been guilty of going down that road once or twice. Probably the nastiest gremlin of them all.
