Interesting...Joe Scarborough is speculating (aka known as fact in the MSM) the chopper "may" have been shot down...

Every time I think I can't despise them more...

Yeah, I saw a bit of that. Scarborough, honestly sickens me. He is RFK Junior's personal a$$ kisser. It's like he has a crush on Bobby Jr. MSNBC hired Scarborough for a reason-- he is a RINO who loves to stick the shiv in the back of other Republicas.

WWL is saying it was a civi helicopter. The two people on board are fine but with cuts and bruises... They say the helicopter came down hard, rolled over, broke the blades and the tail. They don't know why they were there yet or why the helicopter crashed. It was near that Danzigger bridge thingie over the canal... Looks like the Freepers who said it was a civi heli, cause of the "N" were correct. Peace.

Don't forget all those overhead wires everywhere. Very dangerous to helicopter ops.

"Hold on now, don't you know sarcasm when you read it?"

Wow!! People must be really getting testy out there! But I thought everyone would recognize "Bush's Fault" as sarcasm here. I really think it's pretty funny when that line just pops up on these types of stories. No matter how many times I've seen it, it still seems to surprise me and give me a chuckle. Thanks.

I suppose he's savaging Bush for this - "This wouldn't have happened if Bush hadn't strained all our equipment to the breaking point over inb Iraq!"

They are now saying it is a civilian helicopter. Joe should STFU.

We mechs used go as crew up in them after they came out of check to shoot auto-rotations, just for fun.

( the pilots kinda liked it too, as they figured if we
were willing to go after working on them, they were
probably ok.)

Go to altitude, free the rotor drop like a stone
and wind the rotor up then engage the pitch at the bottom
to slow you down, kind of an emergency manouver.
Quite exciting when you're 19.

We used to sing this song as we dropped.

"We are sinking DEEEP in SIN!!!!


"Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"
