This hit so close to home. Both the owner and the CFI were are great friends . Both very smart educated people. CFI was young but experienced heli pilot /fixed wing. He has been flying in AK for several yrs now. Owner a very educated RN and also a safety guy, Have worked together with him. Yes he was a student pilot, not even soloed yet. This is a terrible incident that we all need to step back and reflect on - how we fly- when we fly and who we fly with. We not only lost these 2 guys but 2 others that were along for a nice flight to see some countryside. Families now hurting, communities hurting all feeling the loss.
I will be the first to say there were many things wrong with what happened. Later on in time we can discuss some of those. now is not the time.
Karl you wanted to earn your wings , now you have them GODSPEED my friend Blue skies n tailwinds
My heart goes out to all the families.
