I saw this on rec.av.rotorcraft.
The guy was looking for info on how to buy helicopter wreckage for spare parts............ lifted from RAR............... I don't think that the crash was all that bad. It occurred at about 100 feet when a glider tow pilot crashed into the back of it during an autorotation. Both people in the R22 crawled out of the wreckage with only minor bruises. The kid in the glider that the tow pilot was pulling managed to land safely. He was the only one that didn't wreck his plane. The tow pilot suffered severe injuries and was taken to a local hospital in another helicopter. Dennis Hawkins n4mwd AT amsat DOT org (humans know what to do) |
