Helo crash in 82 or 83 from Mike Fil on May 04, 2024 at 13:52:01

Email: Mike Fil

Happened about 10:00 pm or a little after. We were watching the movie Damnation Ally on ships TV when the crash happened. Foggy night. They said it was pilot error cause of the fog. Pilot pulled up cause he didn’t trust instruments and flipped over the top of the super structure. This is what we were told. I think 12 died in that crash.
