Kobe Bryant Helicopter Crash [ATC Update]

120k ACEPILOT109  4.4 years ago

Well a S-76 helicopter crashed in California not to long ago, among the passengers where Kobe Bryant, a basket ball player. I’m not a basketball guy so I’m not sure how well known he is but it’s on the news. I tried FlightRadar24 but could not find anything much. But I did find the only video of the helicopter spinning out of control into the ground where a huge fire ball can be seen. This is upsetting in many ways, and I hope the cause is figured out.

Viewer Discretion Is Advised

Video

This is probably not the helicopter

(There was already a forum that I didn’t see till after so as they said, it’s a very sad day)

In fact the video only has 200 views (as of now) mainly because the name is spelled wrong and the only reason I found it is because I spelled it wrong.

I think something to do with a tail rotor failed caused the crash as the video shows the helicopter “falling” and spinning out of its normal perimeters. I assume some pilot error was in the mix because it didn’t seem to start any form of “auto ration” to recover. Although the video is crummy I can tell the helicopter looks fine, no fire, smoke, or obviously missing parts until impact with looks to be at the bottom of a hill. Ill post only pictures I find ok to post here. Be sure to watch the video so you can see this ASAP. Very sad and my support goes to all effected in the incident.

Update

New ATC audio

Please be mindful, ill try to answer any questions. And no “F” in the chat, it’s disrespectful and very immature.

    My favourite part about that argument was how deqnq featured someone he respected when he died in a blue angels incident and planegeek’s like:
    nah, he doesn’t exist so you automatically don’t care, noob

    But they do. There’s a memorial of Swissair 111 (apart of the thousands of other aeronautical crashes) in Canada, near where it crashed. Oh, and Kobe Bryant’s not a “random guy”, he’s a world-famous basketball star @PlaneGeek2008

    Atleast have some respect for dead people, even if it’s a random stranger? Please?

    @ACEPILOT109 It definitely is not.
    I live 3 miles from where the crash happened, that is not what the area looks like, and it was foggy out, I saw the fog with my own eyes.
