aser Posted April 9, 2004 Report Share Posted April 9, 2004 I was in Lanzarote island by the time of events , it was a real shock for everybody in Canary Islands.I have seen this helicopter in Lanzarote doing medical evacuation many times... HEMS are very important ,respected and loved by the people from Canary Islands.I have seen the images in TV and as related, I think the pilot (thousands of hours) did a great job avoiding the scene of the accident(full of people) just in front of the helicopter. My condolences for the family and friends. RegardsAser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yzchopper Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 Helicopter pilot found dead 05:26 PM MDT on Wednesday, April 28, 2004 Robbie JohnsonIdaho's NewsChannel 7 MONTOUR -- A man flying a single-person helicopter that was reported missing Tuesday afternoon has been found dead. Paul Boehlke-KTVB The helicopter's landing strut is all that can be seen from the surface of the Payette River. The Gem County Sheriff's office says the helicopter was found upside down in the Payette River near Montour. The pilot was still strapped into the chopper when he was found. Montour is along state highway 52 between Emmett and Horseshoe Bend. Gem County dispatch says the helicopter was found by a plane during an aerial search just after eight Wednesday morning. The Ada County dive team joined the search for the pilot around one p.m. and took off from a boat ramp near Montour. The helicopter was found in a remote part of the river and only the landing struts were visible above the water. The helicopter took off near the Montour Country Store around 4:30 p.m. and searchers looked for the aircraft last night until wind and darkness forced them to suspend the search. The owner of the store saw the helicopter take off Wednesday and told NewsChannel 7 the pilot was there to take pictures of the landscape and decided to go on one more flight. "There was another helicopter with him that had another guy in it, two guys in it, and one guy was filming, this little whirly bird running around," said Bill Beatty, a friend of the pilot. "About two in the afternoon I usually leave here and go into town, and he was just getting ready to take off again by himself. The other helicopter had gone back to Caldwell and that's about the last I saw of him." The Gem County Sheriff has not released the pilot’s identity or where he is from. I just heard On the 6 oclock news the pilot was the owner and founder of the single seat kit turbine helicopter company Helicycle which is based out of Nampa, Idaho. My condolences go out to his family. :down: Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDRickster Posted May 5, 2004 Report Share Posted May 5, 2004 During the extended video, it looks like he entered an auto. When he got close to buildings, it looks like he added power and had TR problems again. I am amazed at how easily the tail boom snapped off like that!

Heli-Ops Posted September 28, 2004 Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 Pilot Survives Las Cruces Helicopter Crash A Southwest Med Evac helicopter crashes at Memorial Medical Center in Las Cruces overnight. Now the pilot is recovering, and an investigation into what caused the crash is underway. The crash happened at around 11:30 Monday night. The helicopter somehow ended up lying on its side, badly damaged from front to back. The pilot escaped from the aircraft through the door. A Southwest Med Evac helicopter pilot was transporting a patient and medical crew to Memorial Medical Center. Soon after, the pilot headed to re-fuel the helicopter, when it crashed right on the heli-pad. When fire crews arrived, the helicopter was on its side. Miraculously, the pilot suffered only minor injuries. Randall Hopper from Southwest Med Evac says, "The pilot is being checked out in the ER. Right now it looks like he just has a sore and bruised shoulder from the shoulder harnesses." He also tells KFOX they do have a back-up helicopter in case any transports need to be made to Memorial Medical Center. While the helicopter remains on the heli-pad, those transports will go to Mountview Regional Medical Center - then be transported by ground to Memorial Medical Center.
