Flaps, we're you with 211 during DS?
Not to detract from a few of the gems just posted... but how did these two didn't end up killing anyone else or themselves is beyond me.
Note the guy who just ducks under the TR at :24 and of course the whole pack that almost gets mowed down shortly there after.
Note: your helo won't work the same at high DAsHigh DA is a bitch.

A question for the aviators here, but assuming these guys are physically able to fly after they recover what are the odds they will? Is this a not going to fly again type accident or thanks for your service accident?
That was my 1st thought...High DA is a bitch.
I think someone on here was saying that the guys who crashed the -64 in another famous online video ("think we can make it?" "nope") are still flying. There were some guys that had a wire strike, obviously much different scenario than the above instance, this was Iraq 2005ish and those two guys are still flying.
I guess each service would do things different, I thought I remembered that my old boss (a former SH-60 pilot) said that the guys in the Lake Tahoe incident were not flying anymore and thought this would be about the same.
And they're getting paid a buttload...... flown by contract pilots.
