So in theory if you lose you bearings why wouldn't you stop the fast paced forward direction and make a vertical ascent until you are out of harms way with the terrain. Seems that would have been the best avenue to ensure your safety? Just curious
I also have no knowledge of helicopter aviation, but from what has been posted ITT and the reddit thread that was linked yesterday, it almost seems as if the pilot freaked out when things went sideways. Think many in the reddit thread thought he was probably inexperienced to deal with the curveball that was thrown his way.

This may be a stupid or naive question, but if the pilot couldn’t see anything, why in the world was he traveling 180mph.

It’s also possible that at some point after he entered instrument conditions he became disoriented and didn’t even know which way up was

Sounds like he lost orientation, freaked out, and regained it, but was lower than he thought he was, and accidently crashed. That would help explain the high speed. God this is so tragic.

Probably because they were at top speed and then ended up the in the clouds, so his thought was the turn to avoid the mountains he thought were only ahead. And l believe that helicopters lose lift if they're in a complete bank, so he needed to stay under full power to complete the turn? I AM NOT A PILOT THOUGH...completely speculating here.

You're trolling on a thread that is supposed to be in rememberance of a man. Get a life and may God grant you the ability to learn some common decency.

Lester has always needed serious meds. He must have forgotten to take them today.

I know this has been posted already, but going to go ahead and add it to OP..
Let’s not forget the young girls who had their whole lives ahead of them, or the other parents/ spouses who will never be able to hug their loved ones again.. Sad situation for all of these families..
