[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]According to Reuters, it was a fairly experienced crew on the helocopter but they were at the wrong altitude. They were wearing night vision goggles and doing a training flight. Right before the crash they confirmed they had the jet in sight - they must have been looking at the wrong plane? or else the night goggles impaired their peripheral vision and they couldn't see all the bright lights on the jet they were flying directly into?[/quote] were the pilots active duty, full time pilots? Or were they reservists flying a few times a year? Pull their career flight logs and let the public know. [/quote] The crew chief in the back of the helicopter has been named - Ryan O'Hara. The two in the front were an instructor pilot with 1000 flight hours and the pilot being evaluated who had 500 flight hours. It was an evaluation of a night flight using night vision goggles.[/quote]
