I will never understand other than pilot error why he was flying so fast. I work by a hospital and see the life flights come and go almost every day even in shitty weather and if the weather is not great they are moving at a snails pace. Seems to me he could have parked it in the field somewhere until the weather improved.

Doing 160-180 when they hit the hillside? Maybe the throttle got stuck or something, who knows... but we surely don’t have the whole story yet |

As usual, you have absolutely nothing to offer to the topic at hand. Buh-bye...

The million dollar question is, was the pilot pressured by the passengers to go up? Or was he just overly confident and thought he could make it thru the bad conditions?

I am confused. the witness (video earlier on this thread) who sounds like he knows aviation, said the chopper was moving slow. was the 160 to 180 referring to the compass (degrees) like he was heading in a southern directions?

With the speed thing, last I read the size of the debris field pointed to a very high speed impact, estimated in the 160-180 range... the final NTSB report hopefully clears it all up |

On a side note today they were working on trying to get those bodies off that hillside I pray that happened today for the family's sake.
