What is going on with all these helicopter crashes, both Military and non-military ? It's very sad indeed, but it is creepy.

Passengers on a U.S. Coast Guard helicoper?
It was one of the flight crew, either the Flight Mechanic or Rescue Swimmer. The press obviously doesn't know the difference. Our HH-65 was on a routine training mission when it went down.
Helicopters are not meant to fly and need a lot of maintenance in order to stay airborne. Coupled with being much more demanding than a plane and there will always be more crashs than in fixed wing. Lets hope they find the others.
All the specialists coming out of the closet.
our hearts go out to the family's of the people of the coast guard!!!!!!!
There are more things that can go wrong with a helicopter than there are things.
Aliens
I flew my remote controlled helicopter into my cats water dish... .
Sad thing is that more of them will die rescuing people like you who don't appreciate their sacrifices. They are heroes!!
and they will charge you an arm and a leg for that
feline violence u could leak oils and gas into its water! or lead paint from china.....
As a USCG wife my heart goes out to all of the families.
Thank You. It so sad to read comments and it's bashing when people do not realize what the CG or others do.
This is the third military helicopter crash in 3 days, very odd.
Helicopter flight crews are trained very well for water survival, especially the Coasties. I hope they find them well.
Since I'm confined to a wheelchair all I have is remote controlled helicopter and my one eyed cat
The Lord bless the rescuers to find their comrades and comfort the families affected, whatever the result.
