What a difference in the videos - you can see the puff of smoke when the shaft decides that it doesn't want to play anymore.

There is always this...

I gotta know, what's the story behind this?

Nothing very interesting. Boat turned when it shouldn't have, bird wasn't ready for it, over it went. The guy you see running out trying to hold it up is the det OIC having a bit of a panic. He got over it.

Damn. I can only imagine the torrential shit storm that came down from that one. Other than blades, doesn't look like it would've caused too much damage.

What part of the world is that?

What part of the world is that?

Alabama. Fort Rucker. AO Hawk in specific. Near Enterprise and north of Andalusia and Florala. Its a 4 week phase of training that is pretty cool, except for making that damn Australian fold map.

Clearly he should have run back out a second time. He held it up the first time.....

There's a lot of composite bits and pieces and antennaes on the side that add up pretty quick. Plus the MAD, the stab and the whole 17K+ pound airframe resting on a part that wasn't designed to take it.

Apparently ESPN has learned how I used to fly the Airbus:
