    RIP to all on those flights.

    VASAviation has the raw ATC audio. If you’re not used to listening to ATC, read the comments for interpretation. Lots of experienced folk there.

    In general, the aviation industry doesn’t assign individual “fault” the way many do. It’s taken as a collective responsibility. It seems at this stage that there’s a lot of responsibility on the helo pilot, but there’s also some communication ambiguity. Let’s let the pros do their work and not jump to conclusions.
